Best Oriental Chicken Salad Recipes

ORIENTAL CHICKEN SALAD WITH CRUNCHY RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Prepare dressing and set aside.
• Smash noodles of Top Ramen (discard seasoning packets) and brown over medium heat in 3 tbs oil.
• Once noodles have begun to slightly brown, add slivered almonds.
• If you start to brown the Ramen and almonds at the same time, the almonds will burn before the Ramen browns.
• Once the ramen noodles have turned a dark golden brown, remove from heat and set aside.
• Combine cabbage, green onions, chicken and sunflower seeds in a large bowl.
• Add the ramen/almond mixture and stir well.
• Add dressing and stir to coat.
• I generally prepare the dressing right before serving.
• If it sits in the refrigerator too long, it gets very thick and won't remix well.
• Also, this amount of dressing is just the right amount to give the salad a good coating.
• If you are one of those who likes more dressing, I would recommend making 1/2 batch of extra dressing.
• If you plan on eating this left over, keep in mind that the noodles will not stay crunchy.

CREAMY ORIENTAL CHICKEN SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. Combine ingredients in blender. Mix well (don't over blend - it will get really thick because of the sesame seeds). Pour over salad (but, I usually keep it to the side so that everyone can put as much or as little on their salad as they want.) Refrigerate unused dressing.
• 2. Salad Suggestions: • Lettuce - I like to use romaine but you can use anything you want. To make it more 'oriental' you may want to add a bag of pre-packaged cabbage mix or bean sprouts. • Carrots - julienne - I use prepackaged sliced carrots to save time. Cut the carrots into julienne slices and soak it in iced water to help perk them up and add a bit more crunch to them. If you don't like carrots, consider red, orange and/or yellow bell peppers. • Cooked chicken/fish/turkey - I use a fork to flake store-bought (like Costco/Sam's Club/Safeway Rotisserie or Hawaiian Huli Huli Chicken. I also use leftover turkey after Thanksgiving. Or if you don't like poultry, we also love pan fried salt and peppered fish filets - cooled and cubed. • Char Siu (Chinese sweet pork) - sliced in strips (optional) • Crunchy Won ton chip strips • Cashews or Peanuts - Place the quantity that you want to use in a Ziplock bag, seal it and gently use a meat tenderizing hammer (or a regular hammer) to break it into smaller pieces. This saves time chopping. • Chinese parsley, Green onion - chopped - I usually put this to the side and let everyone add their own if they want it. You may also want to consider adding something sweet like: • Fresh fruit - Very thin slices of apple/pear, cubes of papaya/mango • Dried fruit - Raisins (1 tiny box per serving), cranberries and/or blueberries
