This smashing sandwich is also a great way to use up leftover cooked chicken. You'll need about 3 cups (750 mL) chopped instead of the chicken breasts.

Ingredients

  • 3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, about 1 lb/500 g
  • 1 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp finely grated lemon rind
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
  • 4 large spinach, plain or coloured tortillas
  • 2 cups watercress or sprouts

Preparation

In large shallow skillet of simmering salted water, cover and poach chicken over medium-low heat, turning once, until no longer pink inside, about 12 minutes. Transfer to plate; refrigerate until cool. Cut into 1/2-inch (1 cm) cubes.

In large bowl, combine celery, mayonnaise, dill, mustard, lemon rind and juice, salt and pepper. Add chicken; stir to coat. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.)

Cut tortillas in half. Arrange 1/4 cup (50 mL) watercress down centre of each; top with heaping 3/4 cup (175 mL) chicken salad. Roll up sides to form cone; wrap bottom with waxed paper or spear with long toothpicks.
