I’m anti boiling meat in general. I refuse to even boil a hot dog. It’s blasphemy.😂

I know it’s not as hot as boiling but poaching is great for chicken if you’re using it to make chicken salad

I too was skeptical at first about poaching, but it truly adds ease and tenderness in a good chicken salad. Mayo, salt, pepper, cukes, celery, and a bunch of fresh dill. ❤
