I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add more dressing.

I made this salad for my family and they loved it! Even my picky kids ate it without complaining.

This salad is so easy to make and it's packed with flavor. I love the addition of the wonton strips, they add a nice crunch.

I've made this salad several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is perfectly balanced and the chicken is always cooked to perfection.
