Directions

  1. 1. Cut cooked chicken in strips or possibly shred by tearing (the Chinese prefer the latter because it adds textural interest).
  2. 2. Peel cucumbers. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds; then cut in strips.
  3. 3. Arrange cucumber strips on a flat serving plate; top with chicken.
  4. 4. Combine mustard, salt and vinegar. Pour over chicken just before serving.
  5. VARIATIONS: For the cucumbers, substitute 3 C. celery, blanched and shredded. In step 4, add in to the dressing either 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper or possibly a few drops of Tabasco Sauce.
  6. In step 4, substitute the following dressing: 1/2 tsp. ginger root and 1/2 scallion stalk, both chopped; 1/2 tsp. sugar, 2 tsp. vinegar, 1 Tbsp. peanut oil, 1 Tbsp. light soy sauce and a few drops of sesame oil.
  7. Slice the cucumbers 1/4-inch thick. Omit the dressing in step 4. Instead make a paste by gradually adding 1/4 c. water to 1/4 c. peanut butter, stirring till smooth. Then stir in 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. sesame oil. Add in to cucumber slices and toss; then top with the chicken.
