Serves 4

Prep Time: 25 mins

Ingredients

1 1/2 Delcados

1 bunch asparagus, base of spears trimmed

3 large handfuls of watercress, trimmed and washed well

1 baby cos, leaves separated

1/2 small fennel, finely shaved fronds reserved for garnish

1/2 a BBQ chicken, shredded 

Green Goddess Delcado Dressing

1 1/2 Delcados

1 large handful each of basil, mint and parsley

1 tablespoons yoghurt

Juice 1/2 lemon or vinegar

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Salt and pepper

Method

1. Bring pan of salted water to the boil. Add asparagus and cook for 30 seconds to a minute. Remove and refresh in cold water.

2. For the dressing, place Delcados into a blender with the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth. Add a splash of water to thin out the dressing so it is pouring consistency and adjust seasoning as needed.

3. Spread half of the dressing into a large shallow salad bowl then arrange cos and watercress. Top with fennel and asparagus. Scoop flesh out of remaining Delcado skins and using a small sharp knife, slice thin, vertical cuts. Gently fan Delcado and arrange on top of the salad, along with the chicken

4. Drizzle remaining dressing over the top and toss at the table just before serving.
