GINGER CHICKEN SALAD SUPREME



Ginger Chicken Salad Supreme image

This has long been my go-to recipe for Easter brunch, potluck lunches, bridal and baby showers, or really, anytime we want a delicious chicken salad. It can be made a day ahead. The unique combination of the fresh ginger and green grapes always draw raves. I serve mine with a basket of fresh croissants that my guests can then make into chicken salad sandwiches, if they choose. There are never any leftovers!

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, pounded, cut into 1-inch strips
3 tablespoons peeled, roughly chopped ginger
3 tablespoons roughly chopped yellow onion
2 tablespoons roughly chopped garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes
1 tablespoon fish sauce
3 tablespoons peanut oil
3/4 cup julienne red onion
1/4 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup julienne red bell pepper
1/2 cup julienne bok choy
3/4 cup mung bean sprouts
1 tablespoon minced ginger

Asian Mayonnaise, recipe follows
6 naan wraps, purchased
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon finely chopped cilantro leave
2 teaspoons finely chopped green onions

Steps:

  • Put the chicken into a resealable gallon-size plastic bag and pound with the flat side of a meat tenderizer to a thickness of 1/2-inch. Add the rest of the ingredients, except the peanut oil, to a food processor, fitted with the bottom blade or a blender, and pulse 5 to 6 times for 2 seconds each or until well blended. Using a new resealable gallon-size plastic bag, add the chicken and the marinade, mix well and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • While the chicken is marinating, prepare the Asian Mayonnaise.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and wipe off the excess with a paper towel. Heat a large saute pan over high heat and add 3 tablespoons peanut oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken, stirring frequently for 3 to 4 minutes. Once cooked through, remove the chicken to a plate and keep warm. To the same pan add the red onions, carrots, red bell peppers, and bok choy and saute for 2 minutes longer. Add in the mung bean sprouts, ginger and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Spread all of the naan with the Asian Mayonnaise and top with the chicken satay saute. Roll and serve immediately.
  • In a small, nonreactive bowl, combine all the ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes.

GINGERY ROTISSERIE CHICKEN SALAD WRAPS



Gingery Rotisserie Chicken Salad Wraps image

One of my favorite pre-cooked items to get from the grocery store is a rotisserie chicken. I love it for quick meals when I don't have a ton of time to cook. I add it to soups, salads and wraps and I also save the leftover bones to make homemade stock.

Time 25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 rotisserie chicken
5 to 6 heirloom carrots, grated on the large holes of a box grater
5 scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 head green cabbage, shredded (about 5 heaping cups)
1 cup roasted and salted cashews, roughly chopped
1 cup cilantro leaves and stems, finely chopped
One 3-inch piece ginger, peeled and cut into small chunks
2 to 3 cloves garlic, peeled
1/2 cup coconut aminos
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
Kosher salt
8 burrito-size flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Break down the chicken, removing all of the meat from the bones and shred into 1- to 2-inch pieces. Save the carcass to make stock with later.
  • Place the shredded chicken in a large bowl along with the carrots, scallions, cabbage, cashews and cilantro. Toss together.
  • Add the ginger, garlic, coconut aminos, olive oil, vinegar, sesame oil, ground mustard and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the carafe of a high-speed blender, such as a Vitamix.
