CRUNCHY ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD
I love their crunchy, citrusy salad so much that once I made my husband drive an hour to the nearest Applebee's restaurant just so I could eat it! It was time to come up with my own version. I'm completely happy with the results-and my husband is, too! Find more of my recipes at my blog, mandysrecipeboxblog.com. -Mandy Bird, Holbrook, Idaho

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- If you don't have time to marinate the chicken, you can cook it without marinating it. However, marinating the chicken will give it more flavor.
- Be sure to cook the chicken until it is cooked through. This will help to prevent foodborne illness.
- If you are using a wok, be sure to heat it up until it is very hot before adding the chicken. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the wok.
- Add the vegetables to the wok in stages, starting with the vegetables that take the longest to cook. This will help to ensure that all of the vegetables are cooked evenly.
- Be sure to stir the chicken and vegetables frequently while they are cooking. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- If you like, you can add a drizzle of sesame oil or soy sauce to the chicken and vegetables at the end of cooking.
