Ingredients

1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
pinch of salt
10 black peppercorns
1 juice of lemon
2 sprigs fresh thyme
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 4 ounces each
1 tablespoon canola or peanut oil
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/2 cup non-fat sour cream
1 cup red or green grapes, halved
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
freshly ground black pepper
8 slices multigrain bread
4 lettuce leaves

Preparation Cook:35 minutes
1 For the chicken salad:
2 In a large saucepan combine the wine, salt, peppercorns, lemon juice and thyme. Add the chicken breasts and enough water to cover them. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let the chicken cool in the liquid.
3 To make the curried sour cream, heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook until the onion is very soft, about 5 minutes. Add the curry powder and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and cool. Stir in the sour cream.
4 When the chicken is cool enough to handle, remove it from the liquid. (Discard the liquid.) Cut the chicken into small pieces, place it in a bowl and toss it with the curried sour cream, grapes and almonds. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
5 For the sandwiches:
6 Place 4 pieces of bread on a work surface and place a leaf of lettuce on each. Spoon the chicken salad on top of the lettuce leaves and top each sandwich with another piece of bread. Serve.
