Day 3

I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but I start thinking about my puppy's health and she got sick.  I mean vomiting and diarrhea . . . all night!  The vet didn't find anything suspicious on examination, and put little Lola on a "bland" diet of chicken and rice.  Honestly, I'm afraid she's going to get accustomed to the good stuff and won't eat dog food anymore!

So I needed to cook chicken . . . and why not check Pinterest for the answers?  I found the following post discussing the differences between boiling and poaching.

I have to admit, the poaching method did come out with much juicier chicken.  I've boiled chicken breasts before for salads, and the meat seems to dry out terribly.  For Lola I just poached in water - no fluff or flavor.  Maybe bland chicken won't be too tempting.

Scratch that.  She just finished her bowl and is snooping for more.  Sigh.  She's hooked.
