Method

  • step 1

    First, combine the dressing ingredients in a bowl, and season with black pepper. (The anchovies are quite salty, so you may not need to add salt. Taste before adding.) Stir in the chicken.

  • step 2

    Split the sub rolls using a serrated knife, being careful not to go all the way through. Spread over the butter, then stuff with the shredded lettuce and chicken mixture. Top with the cucumbers and chives, then wrap in baking parchment to pack into a lunchbox for your picnic.
