Bring water to boil. Place chicken breast in water, place lid on, bring back up to the boil. Remove saucepan from stove and set aside for 20 minutes (it's fine up to 45 min, won't overcook).
Remove chicken from water and slice. Serve with Sauces (below) and rice.
Combine and mix ingredients in a bowl. Set side for 20 minutes. It will sweat and become more liquidy.
