Chinese Chicken Salad
This is the greatest Chinese-inspired chicken salad recipe, especially if your crew isn't crazy about the usual soy-flavored dressing.
Ingredient
- Salad:
- 3 ½ boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and diced
- 1 head lettuce, torn into small pieces
- 4 green onions, sliced
- 4 stalks celery, sliced thin
- 6 ounces Chinese noodles, heated briefly to crisp
- ½ cup walnuts, chopped
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
- Dressing:
- 6 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
- 4 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup peanut oil
Direction
- Prepare salad: Combine chicken, lettuce, green onion, celery, noodles, nuts, and sesame seeds in a large salad bowl. Mix all together. Set aside.
- Make dressing: Put vinegar in a small bowl. Dissolve sugar and salt in vinegar before adding oil. Shake, or beat, well.
- Add dressing to salad, toss to coat, and serve.
