Toast the coconut in a dry nonstick skillet until golden, being careful not to burn it. Leave to cool on a plate.

Peel the kiwi, cut in half lengthwise and slice thinly. Peel the papaya, remove the seeds with a spoon and slice thinly.

While the chicken breast is still warm, slice and arrange on a plate with the fruit.
