Steps:

• 2. Poach the chicken breasts: Add chicken to a large pot of water, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, for about 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. I like to add a chicken bouillon cube and seasoned salt to my water for extra flavor, but it's not necessary.
• 3. Drain chicken breasts. When cool, shred (or dice if you prefer).
• 4. In a bowl, combine mayo, sour cream, and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• 5. Add chicken, cucumber, peaches, and onion to the bowl. Mix gently.
• 6. Chill. When ready to serve, sprinkle toasted almonds on top.
• 7. * If you don't like the strong flavor of onions in your chicken salad, soak them in cold water for about 10 minutes and drain. This makes the flavor mild.
