Marinate the chicken breasts in soy sauce and sesame oil for at least 30 minutes.
Cook the chicken through on a grill or stovetop, then slice into strips.
Combine in a large bowl the shredded cabbage, spinach, grated carrot, cashews, and dried cranberries.
Whisk together in a separate bowl the peanut butter, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, and a bit of water to thin it if necessary.
Add the sliced chicken to the salad and drizzle with the peanut dressing.
Toss well to combine, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
