2 carrots, peeled and halved
6 parsley sprigs and 2 bay leaves
salt , to taste
4 peppercorns
8 boneless chicken-breast halves, 6 oz each
2 medium-sized fennel bulbs, cored (ferns reserved and chopped)
1/2 lb tender green beans (stem ends trimmed), blanched
3 cups ripe cherry tomatoes
3 tbsp large capers, drained
1 cup black olives ( nicoise or gaeta)
1/2 cup whole flat-leaf parsley leaves
salt and freshly ground black pepper , to taste
3/4 cup sunshine vinaigrette
