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.

CABBAGE RAMEN SALAD



Cabbage Ramen Salad image

So refreshing and colorful! Great as a side dish or a salad on its own. A 'slap-chop' works great if you have one. When I bring this to a party, I keep the oils, veggies, seeds, ramen, and sugar in separate bags until it's time to mix and serve. It tastes better to me when I don't mix the sugar with the oil right away.

NAPA SALAD (CHINESE CABBAGE) -- NO RAMEN NOODLES



Napa Salad (Chinese Cabbage) -- No Ramen Noodles image

Napa was on sale this week so I ended up with more than I could readily include in a stir-fry. I decided to search here to see if it could be used in a cole-slaw or salad but all I came with was a dozen variations of the same recipe that called for ramen noodle. I've had that at pot luck dinners and can't stand it. So here is what I came up with. DS#1 added the pecans -- he's got good taste for a 15yo, hasn't he?

Categories     Apple

Time 15m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 head napa cabbage

1/2 cup canola oil or 1/2 cup other light-flavored oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 pinch celery seed
1/4 teaspoon fresh ginger, very finely minced
1/2 teaspoon prepared brown mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 (1 g) packets Splenda sugar substitute

Steps:

  • Wash all produce as necessary.
  • Divide your half-head of napa lengthwise into 3 or 4 sections and knife-shred crosswise to yield strips about 1.5 inches long by 1/4 inch wide.
  • Divide your bok choy stalks lengthwise into 1in sections if necessary and slice thinly. Knife shred the green leaves to match the napa.
  • Mix dressing ingredients and let rest for 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
  • Toss together all salad ingredients with the dressing.
  • Garnish with pecan halves and thin rings of apple if desired.
  • Note -- Other artificial sweeteners, honey, sugar, etc. may be substituted for the Splenda if you prefer.
  • Note -- Can add chunks of cooked ham or other cooked meat to make into a main-dish salad.

Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: Ramen noodles are traditionally made from wheat flour, water, and kansui (a type of alkaline salt), but many variations are now available, including gluten-free, whole wheat, and even vegetable-based noodles. Choose the noodles that best suit your dietary needs and preferences.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions: Overcooking can make the noodles mushy, so be sure to follow the cooking instructions carefully.
