A perfect salad for leftover BBQ, boiled, broiled or baked chicken. A very crunchy salad with a tasty sweet Asian-style dressing. The kids love it too!

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 (8 ounce) package dried rice noodles
1 head iceberg lettuce - rinsed, dried, and chopped
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.
  • To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.
  • In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.

¼ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup sesame oil
3 green onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons ground ginger
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¼ medium head shredded green cabbage
¼ medium head shredded red cabbage
2 large carrots, shredded
3 green onions, chopped
½ bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped leaves
½ cup slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Whisk together the rice vinegar, sesame oil, 3 green onions, garlic, sugar, ginger, soy sauce, vegetable oil, coriander, and mustard in a mixing bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Pour half of the dressing into another container, and refrigerate for later. Place the chicken breasts into the remaining dressing, and coat on all sides. Cover, and refrigerate 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Asian Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipes - Valuable Tips Sandwiches are the perfect casual food that everyone loves. And when it comes to Asian chicken salad sandwiches, the delicious combination of savory chicken, fresh veggies, and flavorful Asian dressing takes it to a whole new level. It's a complete meal that's easy to make, satisfying, and nourishing. If you're planning to whip up some Asian chicken salad sandwiches, here are some valuable tips that will help you create the perfect sandwich every time. 1. Use Fresh Ingredients The foundation of any good sandwich is fresh ingredients. Use high-quality, fresh, and organic vegetables, fruits, and herbs. Go for bright and colorful veggies like red bell peppers, carrots, cucumbers, and radishes that add flavor and crunch to the sandwich. For the greens, use baby spinach, romaine lettuce, or arugula. When it comes to the chicken, always use fresh chicken breasts or thighs that are boneless and skinless. You can either bake or grill the chicken and then cut it into thin slices. Make sure the chicken is well seasoned with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. 2. Choose The Right Bread The bread you choose can make or break your sandwich. A perfect sandwich requires the right balance between bread and filling. Go for a crusty artisanal bread that's not too dense and has a good chewy texture. You can also use sourdough, ciabatta, or focaccia bread. Alternatively, you can use wraps, pita bread, or flatbread for a lighter and healthier option. Make sure the bread is fresh and not too thick, or it will overpower the sandwich's flavors. 3. Make The Dressing The dressing is the essential component that brings all the flavors together. Asian salads usually have a sweet, sour, and savory combination of flavors that tickle your taste buds. Make the dressing at home with simple ingredients like soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers. You can adjust the taste according to your preferences by adding more honey for sweetness or more vinegar for sourness. Mix the dressing well and toss it with the ingredients until everything is coated evenly. 4. Add Some Crunch Adding some crunch to a sandwich can take it to the next level. You can use different kinds of crunchy elements like nuts, seeds, and crispy rice noodles. Toasted almonds, sesame seeds, or crushed peanuts can add a nutty crunch to the sandwich. Crispy rice noodles or wonton strips can provide a crispy texture that contrasts well with the soft filling. You can also add some fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, or mint, which not only add flavor but also provide a refreshing aroma. 5. Experiment With Fillings The best part about making sandwiches is that you can experiment with different fillings according to your preferences. For an Asian twist, you can add some kimchi, pickled cucumbers, or bean sprouts that add a tangy and pungent flavor. You can also add some fruits like mangoes, pineapples, or apples that provide a sweet and juicy taste. For a healthier option, go for quinoa or brown rice, which provide a good source of fiber and nutrients. Tofu or tempeh can be used as a vegetarian or vegan protein option. 6. Layer The Ingredients Properly The way you layer the ingredients in a sandwich can make a big difference. Start by spreading the dressing on the bread, followed by the veggies and fruits, protein source, and finally the crunchy elements. Make sure you distribute the ingredients evenly and cover the bread completely. You can also pre-toast the bread or grill the sandwich to give it a golden and crispy texture. 7. Serve It Cold Asian chicken salad sandwiches taste best when served cold. Keep the sandwich refrigerated for an hour or two before serving to let the flavors marinate. You can also pack it for a picnic or a quick lunch at work. Make sure to wrap it in parchment paper, aluminum foil, or a reusable food wrap to keep it fresh. Conclusion Asian chicken salad sandwiches are a perfect blend of flavors, textures, and nutrients. They are easy to make and a great way to use leftover chicken or vegetables. Remember to use fresh ingredients, choose the right bread, make the dressing, add some crunch, experiment with fillings, layer the ingredients properly, and serve it cold. With these valuable tips, you can create your signature Asian chicken salad sandwich that's healthy, tasty, and satisfying.
