Categories Chicken

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

4 -5 chicken breasts, cooked, boned and sliced thin
6 cups iceberg lettuce, thinly shredded
3 green onions, thinly sliced
2 celery ribs, thinly sliced
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and sliced
2 cups bean sprouts
1/2 cup cilantro, coarsely chopped
salad dressing (Dom's chicken salad dressing, or dressing of your choice)
2 -3 cups bean thread noodles, deep-fried and drained, see note

Steps:

In a salad bowl, combine chicken, lettuce, onion, celery, water chestnuts, bean sprouts and cilantro.
Drizzle dressing over mixture and toss lightly.
Add bean thread noodles and toss very lightly.

NOTE: To deep-fry bean thread noodles, pour about 2" of vegetable oil in a skillet and heat on medium-high heat. To test temperature, drop in a single noodle. If it puffs up, oil is ready. Cook in small batches. As they puff, push them down and turn them to be sure they are all cooked. When they stop crackling (about 30 seconds), remove with a strainer and drain on paper towels.

Tips:

To make the perfect dressing, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, and ginger until well combined.
Use fresh and crispy lettuce or cabbage for a crunchy salad base.
Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces for even cooking and easy eating.
Roast the chicken pieces in a hot oven until crispy and golden brown.
