Instructions

  1. Put the chicken breast in a saucepan with the lightly crushed garlic, bay leaves and peppercorns. Add water to about 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the chicken, season well with salt, and bring to a high heat.
  2. Once boiling, cover, lower to low-medium heat and simmer 10 to 15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C). Transfer to a cutting board.
  3. After 2 to 3 minutes, shred the chicken gently with two forks.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, red onion, celery, grated garlic, dill pickles and chives. Add the shredded chicken and lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
  5. Lightly toast the bread slices.
  6. To assemble, layer two tomato slices on a slice of toast, top with a generous portion of chicken salad and chopped lettuce, then add another slice of toast.
