1. In a 4- to 5-quart pan, bring 2 1/2 to 3 quarts water to a boil over high heat. Add chicken, and when water returns to a boil, cover pan and remove from heat. Let stand until chicken is white in thickest part (cut to test), 12 to 17 minutes. Remove from water and let cool 10 to 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, combine onion and vinegar. Let stand at least 15 minutes.
3. In a 6- to 8-inch frying pan, stir sesame seed over medium heat until golden, about 6 minutes. Pour from pan.

6. Drain onion.
7. In a large bowl, combine chicken pieces, cabbage, onion, cilantro, and both mints.
