  • 1 cup avocado (cubed)
  • 6 large radishes (sliced)

Instructions
 

  • Place chicken in large saucepan with 4 cups salted water & bring to a boil. 
  • Turn off heat, cover & let stand 15 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 160 F
  • Remove peel & pit from grapefruit with knife while chicken cooks. Working over a bowl to catch juice, free each segment from its membrane & cut segments into bite-size pieces, dropping them into the bowl. Add avocado, radishes, basil & salt. Toss gently to mix.
