Recipe(tried): My recreation of Oriental Chicken Salad

Salads - Main Dish

Hi Barb!
I too am a lover of Sweet Tomatoes..Yum!! I have tried to recreate the Oriental Chicken Salad and this is as close as I got...hope you enjoy!

BB's Oriental Chicken Salad

Dressing:(These are aprox. measurements, you can adjust to your taste)
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/2-1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt

Blend well. This makes enough to serve about 8.

Salad:
Shredded Napa (Chinese) Cabbage
Hearts of Romaine Lettuce (Broken in small pieces)
Shredded cooked chicken* (For this amount of dressing I use about 3-4 breasts)
I also add a small amount of shredded carrots and some sesame seeds

Won Ton Skins cut in aprox. 1/4 inch pieces and deep fried until golden brown and crispy. (You can use crispy chow mein noodles instead however Sweet Tomatoes uses won tons...well..that's what I think they are)

I mix some of the dressing with the chicken, (enough to coat it real well), and let it set a bit for the flavors to mingle...then I toss the salad ingredients together with the chicken....drizzle desired amount of dressing on salad sprinkle the fried won ton pieces...gently toss and serve! Hope you like it!!

* You can prepare the chicken anyway you like....I simply cover the chicken in chicken broth, season with pepper, bring to a boil,lower heat and simmer until done and tender. Drain well and shred with fork.
