Directions

  1. In a saucepan over medium high heat, place salt, peppercorns, ginger and spring onion tops, coriander roots and bring it to a boil. Let this gently boil for a few minutes so the water is infused with the spices then place the chicken breasts in. Bring it back to a boil, with the lid on and take it off the heat. Let it poach for 20-30 minutes in the water. Remove chicken from the poaching liquid and place on a chopping board and dice or shred. Tip: you can reserve the poaching liquid to thin out the sesame dressing
  2. In a blender, process the avocado, garlic, soy, sesame oil, tahini and vinegar until smooth and creamy. Add one tablespoon of water (or poaching liquid) at a time to loosen the dressing to your desired consistency. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, place the cabbages, chopped coriander, cucumber, spring onions, chicken and drizzle the dressing and toss well. Transfer to a serving platter, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and extra coriander on top.
