    Method

    1. Put the carrot in a small bowl and cover with the vinegar and a small pinch of salt. Set aside for 10 minutes, then drain.
    2. Mix the mayonnaise and sriracha or sweet chilli sauce and spread over the inside of the baton. Add the cucumber slices, then the chicken, carrot, herbs and chilli. Drizzle with a little extra sriracha or sweet chilli sauce, if you like, then close with the other baton half.
    • Tip: To pull the chicken, put it on a chopping board and use two forks to shred the meat.
