Steps:

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh spinach, crunchy water chestnuts, juicy mandarin oranges, and crisp red onions add vibrant flavors and textures to this refreshing salad.
- Don't overcook the spinach: Quickly wilting the spinach in hot oil helps retain its bright green color and slightly crunchy texture.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: The Asian-inspired dressing, made with sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and ginger, can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Chill the salad before serving: Chilling the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving enhances its flavors and makes it more refreshing.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped peanuts: These toppings add a nutty flavor and an extra crunch to the salad.
