Chicken, Black Bean, Corn & Tomato Salad
Sherry vinegar deepens the lively flavors of this Southwestern salad, and beans and fresh tomatoes keep it moist.

2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 large vine-ripened tomato,
or 2 plum tomatoes, cored and diced 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar,
or cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup chopped scallions, (3 scallions)
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions
1. Shred chicken and combine with black beans, tomatoes and corn in a salad bowl.
2. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and saute until just beginning to color, about 30 seconds. Add oregano and cumin; stir until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Remove from the heat; add vinegar and salt. Pour over the salad. Add scallions and parsley; gently toss to combine.
notes

Tip: To poach chicken breasts: Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a medium skillet or saucepan and add lightly salted water to cover; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes.
