Ingredients:

Serving

6 cups water
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 small onion, halved
1/2 lb skinless, boneless chicken breast
2 1/2 cups (1-inch) slices asparagus
1 cup yellow bell pepper strips
1/4 cup apple-kiwi dressing
1 tsp finely chopped fresh tarragon

Directions:

Combine first 6 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook 5 minutes. Add chicken. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until chicken is tender. Remove chicken from pan with a slotted spoon. Place chicken on a cutting surface; cover loosely with foil. Let stand 10 minutes; cut chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Return poaching liquid to a boil. Add asparagus; cook 2 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse with cold water; drain well. Discard bay leaf and onion. Combine chicken, asparagus, bell pepper, Apple-Kiwi Dressing, and tarragon; toss well to combine.
