Step 1
Season the 2 chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
Step 2
While the chicken cooks, shred the 2 cups cabbage and cut the 2 tomatoes into wedges. Place them in a large bowl.
Step 3
Add the sliced chicken, 0.5 cup grated cheese, and 1 tbsp sesame seeds to the bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
