Another good and good for you salad. From Bon Appetit. Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound) |
5 sprigs fresh cilantro, plus |
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro |

2 green onions, chopped |
1 (8 ounce) package sugar snap peas |

Directions:
1. Fill medium skillet with salted water; bring to boil. Add chicken breasts, cilantro sprigs, and whole green onion; reduce heat to medium and poach chicken until just cooked through, about 20 minutes. Using tongs, transfer chicken to plate; cool. Add snap peas to same skillet; increase heat to high and cook until crisp-tender, about 1 minute. 2. Drain; rinse snap peas under cold water to cool. Discard whole green onion and cilantro sprigs.
