Yield: 4 Servings | Prep time: 30 minutes | Cook time: 50 minutes | Total time: 1 hour, 20 minutes

Instructions

1. Place chicken breast halves in a pot, cover them with water. Bring the pot to a boil, put a cover on it so the water doesn't all evaporate, and then set it to a gentle boil. Cook for about 40 minutes. (or you can bake the chicken breast halves instead).
2. In the meantime, place eggs in a pot, fill the pot with cold water to cover the eggs. Bring the water to boil, over high heat. Reduce the heat and boil the eggs for 10 minutes to get hard boiled eggs. Chill the eggs by placing them under cold running water or in a bowl of ice water.
3. Cut mushrooms into cubes.
