Method

  1. Heat a large, wide solid-bottomed none-stick frying pan

  3. Slice the mushrooms and add to a bowl with the salad leaves, the crostini and the soused onions

  4. Poach two eggs (see the masterclass video link below) 

  5. Add the warm chicken and bacon to the salad bowl, lightly toss together – no added oils or dressings are needed 

  6. Build onto a plate and sit the egg on top – make sure the yolk is still runny

  7. Serve immediately
