Ingredients

Sesame dressing

Method

1.To make sesame dressing, combine all ingredients in a screw-top jar; shake well. Shake occasionally while preparing the salad to dissolve the sugar.
2.Add seeds to a medium dry frying pan; cook, stirring over medium heat, until seeds are toasted lightly. Remove from pan.
3.Half-fill the same frying pan with water; add salt, garlic and coriander stems. Bring to the boil; add chicken, reduce heat to low. Cook, covered, in barely simmering water for about 10 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through, turning halfway. Remove chicken from pan; cover, stand for 5 minutes before slicing or pulling apart into pieces.
4.Meanwhile, combine lettuce, broccoli, snow peas, cucumber, celery and onion in a large bowl. Divide between serving bowls. Top with chicken, drizzle with sesame dressing, sprinkle with seeds.

Not suitable to freeze or microwave.
