  • Pour the noodles into a colander and rinse thoroughly with cold running water.
  • Drain thoroughly and transfer to a large bowl.

  • If using white sesame seeds, toast them in a small, dry frying pan over medium heat until golden and fragrant, about 3 minutes.

  • In a large bowl, toss together the chicken, bell pepper, carrot, cilantro and toasted or raw sesame seeds.

  • Stir in the peanut butter-sesame paste mixture and cook until the mixture begins to form a light syrup, about 1 minute.
  • Remove from the heat and let cool to lukewarm.

The flavor won’t be as strong but it’ll still be delicious. - If you don’t have rice wine vinegar, you can substitute with white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar. - For a vegan version of this dish, you can substitute the chicken with tofu or tempeh. - To make this dish ahead of time, cook the chicken and vegetables the day before and store them in separate containers in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to serve, assemble the salad and toss with the dressing. - If you’re using cooked chicken from a rotisserie chicken, be sure to remove the skin and bones before adding it to the salad. - For a spicier salad, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing. - For a sweeter salad, add a tablespoon of honey or agave nectar to the dressing. - For a more colorful salad, add some chopped red bell pepper or shredded carrots. ### Conclusion This Chinese chicken salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that’s perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
