Line the bottom of four serving bowls with 3 leaves lettuce. Divide the salad evenly among the bowls, over the lettuce. Sprinkle the walnuts on top of the salads and finish with the chives to serve.

Add the chicken, and then pour enough stock to cover, adding more if needed. Bring to a simmer and cook until the meat falls off the bone, 30 to 45 minutes.
