This salad is one of my favorite go to meals when I want something fresh and light but filling enough for dinner. It combines juicy chicken with a great crunch from the cabbage and noodles.

My best tip is to wait until just before serving to add the dressing and noodles. This keeps everything perfectly crisp so your leftovers do not get soggy in the fridge.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 4 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup sliced green onions
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 cup crunchy chow mein noodles
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, ginger, and peanut butter in a small bowl until smooth to make the dressing.

  2. 2

    Combine the shredded chicken, cabbage, carrots, green onions, and cilantro in a large salad bowl.

  3. 3

    Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to coat all the vegetables.

  4. 4

    Top with the crunchy chow mein noodles right before serving to keep them crisp.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

Store the dressing separately from the vegetables if you are making this ahead of time. You can also add toasted almonds or sesame seeds for extra flavor and crunch.
