ORIENTAL CHICKEN SALAD WITH CRUNCHY RAMEN NOODLES



Oriental Chicken Salad with Crunchy Ramen Noodles image

This is a salad that even non-cabbage eaters love. It is nice and crunchy with great flavor. I once took it to a potluck in my apartment complex and then had to put the recipe up on the bulletin board because everyone wanted the recipe!

Provided by -Tulip-

Categories     Chicken

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 -3 cups chopped cooked chicken breasts (depending on the amount of chicken you like)
1 head cabbage, shredded or chopped
1 bunch green onion, finely chopped (or to taste)
2 (2 1/2 ounce) packages slivered almonds
3 tablespoons sunflower seeds
2 packages Top Ramen noodles or 2 packages other ramen-type soup
3 tablespoons oil
3/4 cup vegetable oil or 3/4 cup canola oil
4 1/2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
4 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare dressing and set aside.
  • Smash noodles of Top Ramen (discard seasoning packets) and brown over medium heat in 3 tbs oil.
  • Once noodles have begun to slightly brown, add slivered almonds.
  • If you start to brown the Ramen and almonds at the same time, the almonds will burn before the Ramen browns.
  • Once the ramen noodles have turned a dark golden brown, remove from heat and set aside.
  • Combine cabbage, green onions, chicken and sunflower seeds in a large bowl.
  • Add the ramen/almond mixture and stir well.
  • Add dressing and stir to coat.
  • I generally prepare the dressing right before serving.
  • If it sits in the refrigerator too long, it gets very thick and won't remix well.
  • Also, this amount of dressing is just the right amount to give the salad a good coating.
  • If you are one of those who likes more dressing, I would recommend making 1/2 batch of extra dressing.
  • If you plan on eating this left over, keep in mind that the noodles will not stay crunchy.

ASIAN STYLE CHICKEN RAMEN DINNER COLE SLAW



Asian Style Chicken Ramen Dinner Cole Slaw image

There are many different variations of this salad out there, of course. My version differs in that the dressing is creamy, and not sweet. The recipe makes 4 main-dish portions, or 8-10 side dish portions. It's great as a dinner entrée, and fast and easy to make! Very popular as a take-along potluck or picnic item, too.

Provided by Julesong

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 8 side dish portions, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 (4 ounce) chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup mayonnaise (Best Foods, Hellmann's, or Vegenaise)
2 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt (see note #2 below)
1 garlic clove, minced, to taste
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons lemon juice, to taste
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup slivered almonds
3 green onions, chopped (scallions)
1 (4 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1 (1 lb) bag coleslaw mix or 1 small cabbage, shredded
2 (3 ounce) packages chicken-flavored ramen noodles

Steps:

  • Sauté the chicken pieces in olive and sesame oils until browned. Drain and set aside.
  • In a very large bowl, stir together the dressing ingredients well.
  • Add the browned chicken and coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage to the dressing and toss well to coat. Set aside.
  • Into a bowl, break up the ramen noodles into smaller pieces. In a saucepan, heat the amount of water according to package directions to a brisk boil and add the seasoning packets. Add the bowl of noodles all at once to the boiling seasoned water and cook, stirring occasionally, for 90 seconds. (You want the noodles slightly cooked, but not as limp as ramen will get if you cook it fully.) When noodles have cooked for 90 seconds, remove from heat and immediately drain.
  • Add the semi-cooked drained ramen noodles to the coleslaw and toss again to combine well.
  • Place salad in a large container and chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours (it helps to cool and chill them if you stir the slaw a couple of times during chilling).
  • Makes 4 entrée-size servings. You can always stretch this salad by adding additional meat or packages of ramen! We've even added more semi-cooked ramen the next day to the leftovers. :).
  • Note: for folks who like their salad spicy, the addition of crushed red pepper is nice, or a bit of Tabasco in the dressing. A bit of minced fresh sweet basil is also nice in this recipe. My husband sometimes adds sliced black olives to his serving. I also use about a 1/2 cup of slivered almonds, because I love their taste and texture in the salad.
  • Note #2: if you don't have yogurt, you can use sour cream instead, but yogurt is preferred.
  • Note #3: if taking to a picnic or potluck and you're concerned about the mayo in it, you might consider using Vegenaise instead of regular mayo, which has no eggs in it. Tastes just like old fashioned mayo, but lower fat and no eggs. See http://www.followyourheart.com for more info.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables and herbs will give your salad the best flavor and texture. Ramen noodles are available in the international aisle of most grocery stores.
  • Cook the ramen noodles according to package directions: Be sure not to overcook the noodles, or they will become mushy.
  • Cool the noodles before adding them to the salad: This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your salad: This will add color, flavor, and texture to the dish. Some good options include shredded cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, and snap peas.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings: There are many different dressings that can be used on ramen salad. Some good options include a simple vinaigrette, a creamy ranch dressing, or a tangy Asian-inspired dressing.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Ramen salad is best served immediately after it is made. The noodles will start to absorb the dressing and become soggy if the salad sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Oriental Ramen Salad with Chicken is a delicious, refreshing, and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. With its combination of crunchy noodles, fresh vegetables, and tender chicken, this salad is sure to please everyone at your table. Give it a try today!
