Ingredients:

Serving

1 cooled roast whole chicken, skin and bones removed (about 2 1/2 cups meat)
4 tbsp pesto sauce (to taste)
4 tbsp mayonnaise (to taste)
4 tbsp lemon juice (to taste)
400 g butter beans, drained and rinsed
salt and pepper , to taste
ciabatta or pita bread or baked potato, to serve

Directions:

Shred chicken and place in a bowl.
Add pesto, mayonnaise and lemon juice, toss to thoroughly combine.
Fold through butter beans gently so they don’t break up too much.
Season with salt and pepper as desired.
Adjust the amount of lemon and mayonnaise to achieve the desired consistency.
Serve on toasted Ciabatta fingers as an appetiser, on a piece of toast or bread as a light meal, stuffed in a pita with tomato and lettuce, in a baked potato - or if you can think of another way, let me know!
