Chicken, Avocado and Apple Salad

In a small saucepan put the celery sticks (washed and cut in big pieces), the carrot (peeled and cut in big pieces) and the white onion (peeled). Add 2 liters of cold water, and put the pan on the stove at high heat. When the water is boiling add the whole chicken breast, season with salt and pepper, and cook it for 30 minutes at low heat covered with a lid. Then remove the chicken breast from the water using some tongs. With a knife make a cut in the middle of the chicken breast and check to make sure that it is cooked. If it is still pink, cook it for 10 minutes more.

When the chicken breast is ready take it out of the pan, dry it, and let it cool. Cut it into small cubes (2-3 cm) and set it aside. Discard or use the broth and veggies for another purpose.

Wash the lettuce and put it into a large bowl. Peel and pit the avocado and peel and core the apple. Cut both into small pieces and put it into the bowl with the lettuce. Peel the red onion and chop it into slices. Separate the slices into rings and add it into the bowl with the lettuce mixture. Add the chicken into the salad bowl. Mix everything to combine.

In a small bowl whisk together the ingredients for the dressing.

Pour the dressing onto the chicken salad and serve with or inside of the warm pita bread.
