Method
Remove the skin from the chicken and slice the flesh into longish pieces where possible.
Remove all the chicken from the bones and place all the meat in a bowl, seasoning with salt and pepper.In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise thoroughly with the cream, adding the chopped tarragon and finely chopped spring onions.
Now pour the sauce over the chicken, mix it well so that all the chicken pieces get a good coating, then arrange it on a plate of crisp lettuce leaves and garnish with green grapes and a few sprigs of watercress.
