Wash the chicken breast and boil it in salted water over medium heat for 30 minutes after boiling. Remove the chicken breast, let it cool, then cut into small cubes and place into a salad bowl. If you boil the chicken in advance, this will allow you to prepare the salad in just a few minutes.

Cut the pineapples into cubes, just like the chicken, and place them in a salad bowl. If you want a more intense pineapple flavor and less watery texture, peel a fresh pineapple, cut the flesh into pieces, and bake in the oven for just 15 minutes at 180 degrees. Drain the juice, let the pineapple cool, then add it to the salad bowl.
