I poach my chicken breast. I add 2 cups water to a saucepan and add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add skinless/boneless chicken breast and bring to a slow simmer. I cover the skillet and cook 5 minutes and turn off the heat. Allow to cool. Dice chicken and finish the recipe above.

Refrigerate the chicken salad until ready to serve.

Serve on a croissant, toasted English muffin, sandwich bread or just eat it plain on a base of shredded lettuce.
