Serve with one 6 inch whole wheat pita round and garnish with lettuce or alfalfa sprouts. This recipe keeps well for about 24 - 36 hours only.

4 cups water
4 ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tsp curry powder
1 Tbsp reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 Tbsp slivered almonds
2 Tbsp non-fat sour cream
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp chutney
2 Tbsp golden raisins
2 Tbsp green onions (chopped)
1/4 cup celery (diced)
1 Tbsp red bell pepper (diced)

Place water in a shallow pan over high heat. When the liquid is at a shiver, reduce the heat to medium so that it won’t boil. Add the chicken breasts and poach until just done. This should take about 10 minutes; check for an internal temperature of 170° to ensure the chicken is cooked.

When the chicken is cooked, remove it to a cutting board and let it cool for about 15 minutes; then put it in the refrigerator to chill.

When chilled, cube the chicken breasts and place in a medium mixing bowl. Add all the other ingredients and fold together until well coated.

Chill for at least an hour before serving.
