* '''for the chicken'''
* 3 skinless, boneless Chicken breasts, about 450 g (1 lb) in total weight
* 1 Clove of Garlic, peeled and crushed
* ½ teaspoon whole Black peppercorns
* 1 small unpeeled Onion, halved
* 1 bouquet garni - optional
* '''for the garnish'''
* 1 large Cucumber, peeled, de-seeded and cut into thin strips. If, like me, you are a lazy cook, slice it in a Food processor!
* 1 serving of bang bang sauce
* 1 tablespoon of Chili oil recipe (quick)* quick chili oil
===Method===
* Place the Chicken in a small saucepan and just cover with water
* Add the Garlic, Peppercorns the Onion and optionally, the bouquet garni.
* Bring to the Boil, skim off any scum. Cover and Simmer for 20-25 minutes
* Remove the Chicken and pat dry with a clean Tea-towel
* (If making bang bang Sauce, use 3 tablespoons of the cooking liquid to thin the Tahini)
* Freeze the remaining liquid as Chicken stock
* Smash the Chicken breasts flat with a rolling-pin or the (clean) base of a large Frying pan. Bang! Bang!
* Shred the Chicken with two forks
* Arrange the Chicken and Cucumber on a serving dish and drizzle with bang bang sauce and Chili oil
