Categories     Salad

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4-5 Leaves Iceberg Lettuce
1 Piece Chicken Thigh
1 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Sliced/Crushed Almonds or Macadamia Nuts
2 tbsp Rice Vinegar
2 tbsp Sweetener (monkfruit erythritol blend, sugar or sweetener of choice)
1 tbsp Dark Toasted Sesame Oil
1/2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Steps:

  • Gather all the ingredients.
  • Add enough water to boil chicken thigh in a stove top pan. Once water is boiling, add 1/2 tsp of salt and chicken thigh into stove top pan. Reduce heat to medium, cover the pot 7/8 of the way to allow for evaporation, and cook for 10 minutes.
  • In the meantime, prepare, wash, dry lettuce leaves as needed. Cut into 1/2 inch width bite sizes and place into a bowl.
  • Optional - if you have pre-sliced or pre-crushed almonds, you can skip this step. If you have whole almonds, put almonds in a food processor and pulse until almonds are in smaller pieces (or you can just break them up with kitchen mallet). Set aside.
  • In a small fry pan, add sweetener and Rice Vinegar and bring to boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, transfer to a mixing and let it cool. Note - if using a traditional sweetener like sugar, you can skip this step and add the ingredients directly into a mixing bowl.
  • Once liquid is cooled from step above, mix in Dark Toasted Sesame Oil, vegetable oil, salt, black pepper and set aside.
  • Once 10 minutes has passed, pull chicken from pot and place onto a cutting board. With a knife and tongs, gently sweep the knife left to right with the knife pointing with the grain of the meat. The chicken should pull apart and form shreds.
  • Combine shredded chicken, sliced/crushed almonds, dressing (to taste) into lettuce bowl and toss well. Note - make sure you vigorously shake/mix dressing prior to serving as settling will occur.

MANDARIN CHICKEN PASTA SALAD



Mandarin Chicken Pasta Salad image

I had this at a party and couldn't get it off my mind. It's a fruity Asian chicken salad that even my family's picky eaters enjoy. I bake my own chicken for more flavor, which adds to the prep time, but pre-cooked or canned chicken will also work just fine.
