Poaching the Chicken:
Place chicken breasts in a wide pot; cover with about 1 inch cold water; season generously with salt.
Cook on the stovetop on medium heat until reaching a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low; cover. Simmer 8 - 12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F to 165°F. Remove the chicken from the pot; let rest several minutes. Refrigerate.

Place cooled chicken on a cutting board; dice into 1/2 inch pieces.
Dice the celery, green onion, grapes, parsley and tarragon; add to a bowl with the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Mix until ingredients are well combined.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
