I was looking for a lighter chicken salad for spring time and came up with the following recipe that does the job. Poaching the chicken first in aromatics is key to its terrific flavor.

Steps:
- Put the chicken thighs in a medium size sauce pan and add the next 9 ingredients. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to lowest setting, and gently poach until juices in chicken when pierced are clear and no longer pink, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Remove chicken pieces to a plate to cool. Discard poaching liquid. When the chicken's cool enough to handle, remove the skin and bones and coarsely chop the meat.
- Add the chicken to a large bowl and stir in the remaining ingredients.
- Terrific on a sandwich or as a main dish salad on a bed of mixed spring greens.
