Once all the meat is shredded place in a large bowl and set aside. Cut grapes in half and add to your chicken. Cut desired mount of onion and add to chicken. Use a skillet to toast pine nuts. no oil is necessary but make sure you use a wooden spoon and keep those nuts moving so as not to burn them. Add to chicken.
