2 tsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp fresh tarragon or flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Place the chicken breasts in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about 1 inch. Add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 15–18 minutes, until the thickest part of each breast registers 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer.
2
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes, then refrigerate until cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes. Once cooled, cut or shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
