Step 1
Season the 2 chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high heat until cooked through and charred in spots, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let rest, then slice.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp lime juice, and 3 tbsp warm water until smooth. Add more water if needed to reach a pourable consistency.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the 4 cups mixed greens, 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved), and 1/2 red onion (thinly sliced).
Step 4
Pour the peanut dressing over the salad and toss well to coat every leaf.
Step 5
Top with the sliced grilled chicken and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
