Prepare four large salad plates and first divide the iceberg lettuce between the plates. Then top with the cucumber and tomatoes, sliced ​​mushrooms, and warm bell pepper pieces. Finally, cut the chicken fillets into strips and arrange them on top of the salad. Sprinkle with pine nuts. Pour the salad dressing over the salad. Garnish with small basil leaves.
