This is delicious and very much like a "Coronation Chicken" salad recipe I've been trying to duplicate for years (although there are many variations of that). I oven poached 3 boneless, skinless breasts and allowed them to cool in the cooking liquid (keeps them moist). After the onion mixture cooled I whisked in all the ingredients and then added the chicken. Because I may have had more chicken than called for, it was a bit on the dry side but I added a little plain yogurt. I will serve this tomorrow to lunch guests on CL's wonderful Rosemary-Walnut bread and a local restaurant's Tomato Bisque. It's a keeper!

I made this for a baby shower and the guests really liked it. It was easy, and I would definitely make it again.
