Poached chicken and brown rice salad with lemon vinaigrette

Poached chicken and brown rice salad with lemon vinaigrette

Healthy resolutions are hard to keep in place. One way is to make a dish that has many familiar elements, all cooked in a way that doesn’t add up to much fat or calories.

Here, a warm salad of nutty brown rice, edamame, and poached chicken is brightened with citrus dressing. Simmer brown basmati in a heavy-bottomed pot. Whisk together a lemony vinaigrette, and toss the dressing with the warm grains, soy beans, and scallions. Top with chicken breasts cooked slowly in a flavorful stock. (Recipe: Poached chicken and brown rice salad with lemon vinaigrette)
