Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1/4 cup chopped thawed frozen pitted sweet cherries, juices reserved
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon rice vinegar (unseasoned)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1 cup thawed frozen pitted sweet cherries, juices reserved
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1 clove garlic
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Vegetable oil, for brushing
2 cups sauerkraut, drained and rinsed
1/2 12-ounce package wonton wrappers, thinly sliced
6 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 red bell pepper, julienned
1 green bell pepper, julienned
3 scallions, julienned
2 medium carrots, julienned
1 cup snow peas, trimmed and julienned
1 cup drained sliced water chestnuts

Steps:

  • Make the dressing: Whisk the cherries, 1 tablespoon reserved cherry juice, the soy sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, vegetable oil and sesame oil in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Make the chicken: Put the cherries, 3 tablespoons reserved cherry juice, the soy sauce, white wine, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, ginger and garlic in a blender and puree until the cherries and garlic are finely chopped. Pour the marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Pierce the chicken all over with a fork. Add to the bag with the marinade, seal and refrigerate at least 20 minutes or up to 8 hours. Preheat a grill to high. Brush the grates with vegetable oil. Remove the chicken from the marinade, brushing off any excess. Grill the chicken, covered, until the juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the salad: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Soak the sauerkraut in a bowl of ice water 10 minutes; drain, rinse and squeeze out the excess water. Arrange the wonton strips in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 5 minutes. Toss the sauerkraut and romaine with half of the dressing in a bowl; divide among plates. Top with the bell peppers, scallions, carrots, snow peas and water chestnuts. Slice the chicken and serve with the salad. Top with the crispy wonton strips. Serve with more dressing on the side.

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 (8 ounce) package dried rice noodles
1 head iceberg lettuce - rinsed, dried, and chopped
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.
  • To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.
  • In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.
