Food Safety
Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps
Poach chicken breasts in water in covered skillet turning at least once during cooking.
Bring 2 cups of water to boil and add bulgur, cover and simmer for approximately 12 – 15 minutes (not mushy). Drain and cool in refrigerator.
When cooked, dice chicken and refrigerate.
Make dressing by whisking together, olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, basil and mint (rub the herbs between fingers to crush when adding to mixture).
When chicken and bulgur are both cool, add apricots, currants, cucumber, and mix well. Mix in dressing. Let salad sit in refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
