Giada's Asian Chicken Salad image

Just watched Giada make this and it looks so light and tasty! Can't wait to try it. Update: did try and have changed the dressing slightly, in agreement with the first review.

The salad was easy to make and the dressing was delicious. However, the chicken was a bit dry. I think I'll try marinating it next time.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar in the dressing.
