Steamed chicken breast

Briefly steaming chicken in white wine, sake, or water and letting the residual heat slowly cook the meat prevents it from drying out. This technique is very versatile and the chicken can be used in salads, wraps & sandwiches, or is delicious just as is with an avocado dip or herb sauce. I recommend using a heavy pot like Le Creuset, as it holds heat well, but you can also use a covered sauce pan (may want steam for another 1-2 minutes).
