If you want to go one step further for the ultimate melt-in-the-mouth chicken experience, try putting the raw chicken breasts in the cold stock (with the spices) the day before and leaving it overnight in the refrigerator before bringing it to the simmer the next day to poach it with the veggies. This 'pre-brining' in the stock will über-tenderise your chicken and infuse the flavour even better !!
