Step 1

Put kettle on. Preheat a sandwich press. Fill one-third of a large saucepan with water and place over high heat. Cover. Bring to boil.

Step 2

While the water and sandwich press heat up, juice the lemon into a bowl. Cut the onion into thin wedges and add to the bowl. Season with salt and set aside to pickle slightly.

Step 3

Pour boiling water from the kettle into pan of hot water. Cover and return to the boil. Add the pasta and cook following packet directions for 1 minute less than stated on the packet. Drain. Return to pan.

Step 4

While the pasta cooks, place the garlic bread in the hot sandwich press and cook for 1-2 minutes or until golden. Cut into large croutons. Thickly slice the baby cucumbers.

Step 5

Add half the dressing to pasta and toss. Arrange pasta, spinach, chicken, croutons and qukes in a large serving bowl. Drain onion and add to bowl. Drizzle over remaining dressing, season and serve.
