ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD



Asian Chicken Salad image

A perfect salad for leftover BBQ, boiled, broiled or baked chicken. A very crunchy salad with a tasty sweet Asian-style dressing. The kids love it too! The Chinese rice noodles are of the cellophane type and can be found in the Asian section of most grocery stores. They are often in rectangle form and in clear packaging.

Categories     Salad     Green Salad Recipes

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.

¼ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup sesame oil
3 green onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons ground ginger
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your salad will taste. Look for ripe vegetables, crisp lettuce, and tender chicken.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will give your salad more flavor and texture. Some good options include cucumber, bell pepper, tomatoes, corn, and edamame.
  • Make your own dressing: Homemade dressing is always better than store-bought. This recipe for Oriental dressing is easy to make and very flavorful.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The dressing will wilt the lettuce if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Oriental Chicken Summer Salad is a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer party or potluck. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With so many delicious and healthy ingredients, this is a great salad to make and enjoy all season long.
