CHICKEN AND CABBAGE SALAD WITH MISO-SESAME VINAIGRETTE



Chicken and Cabbage Salad With Miso-Sesame Vinaigrette image

This simple salad calls for a specific set of ingredients, but it can also be considered a loose guideline. Thinly sliced leftover steak, shredded salmon or sliced dense tofu could easily take the place of the chicken - and that chicken can be left over from the night before, whether it's been poached, grilled, pan-seared or cooked on a rotisserie. Any crisp, crunchy lettuce will do. You could opt for shredded carrots and diced jicama instead of cucumber and radish, or add a handful of split cherry tomatoes and raw snap peas cut on a bias. As long as the basic balance of protein, dressing, greens, vegetables and herbs is maintained, the rest is up to you and your vegetable drawer.

Time 10m

Yield 2 to 4 servings (about 2 quarts)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeds removed, then sliced on a sharp bias into 1/4-inch slivers
8 small radishes, thinly sliced

Handful fresh mint leaves, very roughly chopped
Handful fresh cilantro leaves, very roughly chopped
1 small red onion or a few scallions, thinly sliced
