Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, sliced into strips
Water
Coarse salt and cracked pepper
1/2 pound sugar snap peas
1 1/2 pounds Napa cabbage, thinly sliced, about 1 small head
2 cups red cabbage, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced thin
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and sliced thin
1 1/2 cups sprouts
6 scallions, sliced thinly
5 ounces shredded carrots (1/2 a 10 ounce supermarket bag)
1 cup loosely packed, roughly chopped cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon sesame tahini or creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
1/2 cup lime juice
6 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons grated ginger
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon chili paste

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a shallow pot or non-stick pan with just enough water to keep it from burning. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, turn heat to medium and cook 5 minutes. Add peas to pan, cover and continue cooking 3 to 5 minutes more until chicken is tender and snap peas are blanched but still crunchy. Remove from heat, pour off liquid and let cool.
  • Place sesame tahini and sesame oil in a large salad bowl, whisk in lime juice and stir until combined. Add soy sauce, ginger, sugar and chili paste. Taste and adjust seasonings. Add chicken, snap peas, cabbage, peppers, sprouts, scallions, carrots and cilantro. Toss until all ingredients are coated with dressing. Serve immediately.

I'm on a low-carb diet, so I omitted the wonton strips and added some extra vegetables instead. The salad was still delicious, and it was a great way to get my daily dose of vegetables.

I love spicy food, so I added a little Sriracha to the dressing. It gave the salad a nice kick, and I really enjoyed it. Overall, this is a great recipe for a light and flavorful salad.

I made this salad for a potluck and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it, even the picky eaters. The salad is light and refreshing, and the dressing is not too heavy. I will definitely be making this again soon.
