EASY ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD image

Categories     Chicken     Leafy Green     Sauté     Quick & Easy

Yield Serving Size: 1. For 2 people just double it, etc.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 Chicken Breast
Preferred Seasonings or Marinade
1 Tbsp of Olive Oil
2 Cups of Salad Greens (any type you prefer. I like something with Endive, and Baby Spinach. The pre-bagged lettuces make this recipe even quicker.)
3 oz Mandarin Oranges
1/4 Cup of Croutons
1 Tbsp of Almond Slivers
1 Tbsp of Green Onions (or Scallions)
1 Tbsp of any Salad Dressing (something Asian or Italian works best. For a low fat option, try a 1 Tbsp of Lemon Juice instead.)

Steps:

  • This recipe is broken down in a "per-person" style. By following the portions above, you will make a salad for 1 person. If you have 2 people in your party, just double it, for 3, triple it, etc. First, season or marinate your chicken breast however you like it. I love using come Cajun Seasoning, it spices it up just right. Try marinading it in Lawry's marinades, they are inexpensive and quick. They have great flavors like Carribean or Garlic Lime. Saute the whole breast for about 4 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Leaving it whole takes longer, but the chicken will be more moist. If you are pressed for time, you can cut up the breast into chunks, then saute it. (The chicken can be baked on a rack, for a low fat option). While chicken is cooking, begin chopping your green onion. Sent them in a small bowl to the side. Next, start layering your salad ingredients. This order works best: Salad Greens, Mandarin Oranges, Croutons, then Almonds. After your chicken breast is finished, decide whether you want it in chunks or sliced. I prefer to chop it into bite size chunks, it makes it easier to eat. Add the chicken pieces atop your assembled salad, and garnish with the green onion. I like using Italian or Asian dressings, a little goes a long way. In a pinch, or on a diet, just use some fresh lemon juice, it works just as well.

This salad is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great with a less spicy dressing.

I love the crunch of the wonton strips in this salad. They add a nice textural contrast to the soft chicken and vegetables.

I'm not a big fan of Asian food, but this salad was surprisingly good. The dressing is tangy and sweet, and the chicken is very tender.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also like to add some chopped vegetables, like carrots and celery, for extra crunch.
