CHINOIS CHICKEN SALAD WITH CHINESE MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Season the chicken breast on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large saute pan over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil and heat to almost smoking. Add the chicken, skin side down and cook for 4 minutes. The skin should be golden brown. Turn the chicken over and place in the oven. Roast until the chicken is just cooked through and the juices run clear, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- While the chicken is in the oven, prepare the greens. Fill a very large bowl halfway full with ice water. Quarter the Napa cabbage lengthwise and remove the core. Thinly slice the cabbage widthwise and place in the ice water. Repeat this same process for the radicchio. Halve the romaine lettuce lengthwise and then thinly slice. Add to the water. Mix all of the greens well in the ice water and let sit for about 5 minutes. Drain. Place in a clean kitchen towel and dry well. Be careful not to bruise the greens. Refrigerate.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and cool enough to handle. Remove the skin and slice the chicken. Discard the skin and bones. Roughly chop the sliced chicken and place in a large bowl. The chicken should still be warm. Add some of the vinaigrette and toss well. Add the greens and a little more vinaigrette and toss until everything is well coated.
- Place a small mound of greens on 4 plates. Top each mound with a spring roll basket and lightly press to stabilize. Fill the baskets with more of the salad. Top with some of the fried springroll strips, a sprig of cilantro, peanuts, and a lime wedge.
- Place all of the vinaigrette ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Correct the seasonings. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Heat a deep fryer to 375 degrees F. Or fill a deep pot halfway full with oil and heat to 375 degrees F.
- Roll up 2 of the egg roll wrappers and julienne. Set aside. Place 1 of the remaining wrappers in the hot oil for 5 seconds to soften. Then, carefully push the center of the wrapper down with a ladle. Fry just until the oil stops sizzling, about 15 to 30 seconds. The basket should be golden brown. Remove with tongs to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining 3 wrappers. Once all of the baskets are made, add the julienne strips and fry just until the oil stops sizzling and the strips are golden brown, about 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

- Place the chicken breasts on a sheet pan and rub with the skin with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove the meat from the bones, discard the skin, and shred the chicken in large bite-sized pieces.
- Blanch the asparagus in a pot of boiling salted water for 3 to 5 minutes until crisp-tender. Plunge into ice water to stop the cooking. Drain. Cut the peppers in strips about the size of the asparagus pieces. Combine the cut chicken, asparagus, and peppers in a large bowl.
- Whisk together all of the ingredients for the dressing and pour over the chicken and vegetables. Add the scallions and sesame seeds and season to taste. Serve cold or at room temperature.

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.
