Instructions

For the "Chicken"

To prepare the jackfruit, drain the young jackfruit from the can, give it a good rinse under running water and then pop it into a clean cloth or nut-milk bag and give it a good squeeze to get rid of the extra moisture. We don't want the brine-y flavour here. Now, thinly slice each triangle lengthways and pop the pieces in a large bowl. Add the chickpeas, nutritional yeast, soy sauce and sugar and stir well to combine.

Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot add the jackfruit and chickpea mixture and cook for 5 minutes, stirring regularly. While cooking, break up the jackfruit with a fork to resembled shredded chicken. Remove from the heat to cool.

For the Dressing

To a large bowl add the French shallot, capers, yoghurt, mayonnaise, vinegar, parsley, and celery. Stir to combine well

Add the cooled jackfruit/chickpea mixture and mix well to combine before seasoning with salt and pepper.
