Time 45m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 grilled skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup white sugar
¼ cup water
½ cup red wine
1 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon wasabi paste
½ cup diced tomatoes
¼ cup diced red onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 limes, juiced
2 avocados - peeled, pitted and diced
salt and pepper to taste
hot sauce to taste
1 (10 ounce) package mixed salad greens, rinsed and dried

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Slice chicken strips and set aside.

Time 5m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (12 1/2 ounce) can chicken
4 teaspoons wasabi powder (or to taste)
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 pinch garlic powder
1/4 cup mayonnaise
diced cucumber, with seeds removed (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a bowl using a fork.
  • Be sure you know how hot your particular brand of wasabi is, so you put enough!
  • Serve open faced on toast, or better yet, a toasted everything bagel.
  • This would also be good with canned turkey or tuna.
  • I recommend the low sodium soy because the canned chicken is already very salty.

¼ cup slightly crushed wasabi peas, divided
2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds, divided
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
