Categories     Easy

Time 43m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 small head green or white cabbage (2 cups shredded)
1 ½ cups shredded carrot
1 cup of canned pineapple
½ cup fresh cilantro
½ cup green onions
½ cup chopped peanuts
Dressing
2 cloves garlic
3 bird's eye chili peppers (sub ½ teaspoon minced hot pepper)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon oil
½ teaspoon fish sauce
¼ cup peanut butter
¼ cup water

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the chicken breasts, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes. When the chicken is done, remove from heat, drain water, let cool, and shred with two forks.
  • If using an air fryer to cook the chicken, set the temperature to 400 degrees and cook the chicken breasts for 16 to 18 minutes. Finely chop them when they are cooled.
  • Chop the cabbage into very thin pieces, like it would be for coleslaw. Peel and grate the carrots. Drain the canned pineapple. Roughly chop the cilantro and green onions. Toss the chicken and vegetables in a large bowl and keep chilled.
  • Make the dressing: Mince the garlic and chili peppers. Place garlic and peppers in a small mixing bowl with the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, lime juice, oil, and fish sauce. Whisk until smooth. Add the peanut butter and water and whisk again until smooth and creamy.
  • Toss the salad with the dressing. Add the crushed peanuts. Serve chilled. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to one day. For best results, keep the leftover salad and dressing separate until ready to serve.
  • Safe bowl on high for 1 minute.
