I received an email today with this copycat recipe listed. Everyone's favorite salad. Fresh greens, tender chicken, succulent oranges, and tasty toppings. It's the salad that'll satisfy any craving. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise |
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar |
2 teaspoons brown sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil |
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce |
1 pinch garlic powder |
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves |
5 cups romaine lettuce |
2 cups mixed greens |
5 ounces carrots, shredded |
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted, salted |
1 cup canned mandarin oranges, packed in juice and drained |
1/2 cup red cabbage, shredded |
1/2 cup chow mein noodles (optional) |
1/2 cup sliced almonds, roasted (optional) |
Directions:
1. Add the dressing ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend with a mixer until combined. Chill before serving.
2. As the dressing chills, add chicken breasts to a pot of boiling water. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until cooked.
3. Once the chicken is tender and no longer pink, remove from the pot and cut into bite sized pieces.
4. Combine chicken and other remaining salad ingredients in a bowl.
5. Toss the salad with the dressing and serve.
