Shredded chicken and cabbage

This is a great way to use left over chicken from a roast, a curry or even simply boiled chicken.
If curried, just wipe away the remnants of the gravy and shred it.

Onion - 1 (sliced)
Green chillies - 2 (slit)
Cabbage - 2 cups (shredded)
Celery stalk with leaves - 1 small (diced fine)
Cooked chicken - about 100 gms or a half cup (minimum)
Pepper powder - 1/2 tsp
Soy sauce - 1/2 tsp
Butter - 1/2 t
Turmeric powder - a pinch
Chilly powder - 1/2 tsp
Salt to taste

In a non-stick pan, put the butter and a few drops of oil so that the butter won't brown. Add the sliced onions and saute till golden. Now add the cabbage,green chillies, turmeric and chilly powder. Add salt to taste at this point since the chicken will already have salt. Now add the chicken, soy sauce and pepper. Finally garnish with the celery.

If mixed with a bit of mayonnaise, it can be used as a salad or as a filling for bread rolls, in a tortilla or chapati. Add bit of relish or pickled gherkins and spread on toasted bread slices for a superb sandwich.
