  • freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • generous handful (aabout 50g/2oz) plain tortilla chips

  1. Crack the egg into a bowl and whisk while you add the oils, parmesan and lemon juice. Whisk in the salt if you don’t fancy anchovies.
  2. Break the crisp lettuce into bite-sized pieces and put into a salad bowl. Drop in the shredded cold chicken and mix to combine. Season with black pepper, to taste.
  3. Toast the tortilla chips for a couple of minutes in a dry pan over a medium heat.
