Salt it so that it tastes good, add the chicken breast, and remove the pot from the heat. Cover and let the chicken sit until cooked but very tender, about 15 minutes. (If you’re using 2 smaller breasts, decrease the time by about 3 minutes.) Remove the chicken from the water (don’t throw the water away!) and cut into it to check its doneness; if it’s still a little pink, return it to the water for another minute or two. Remove the chicken to a plate and let it rest while you cook the noodles. Bring the water the chicken was cooked in back to a boil over high heat. Add the fettuccine and cook to al dente according to the package directions. Drain, rinse the pasta in cold water until cool, then shake it dry in a colander. While the pasta cooks, in a medium bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil, the peanut oil, tahini, soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, honey, cayenne, and garlic until smooth. Transfer the noodles to a large bowl and use a clean paper towel to gently pat the noodles as dray as possible. Toss the noodles with the remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Shred the chicken with your hands or chop it into bite size pieces and add it to the noodles. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Garnish with the scallions.
