4 boneless and skinless chicken breasts

1 small Spanish onion, diced

1 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves chopped

2 carrots, peeled and grated

1 small head napa cabbage, shredded

1 head Bibb or butter lettuce

1 pound angel hair pasta, cooked according to package directions, drained and cooled

  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, to tastes, and cook on the grill until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 5 on each side. Let the chicken cool down then dice it into bite-size pieces.
