An adopted recipe originally posted by Mean Chef. When you've got leftover chicken on hand, Winter Chicken Salad With Chipotle Cream Dressing will warm you up in a hurry. You can adjust the fire power according to your own taste, using as much chipotle puree as your household will appreciate. Toss crunchy bok choy with slivers of ruffled red cabbage, spicy cilantro, shredded sweet carrots and fresh green onions. Top it off with Chipotle Cream Dressing, which also tastes fabulous on grilled chicken or fish. This fabulous yet easy-to-make sauce is based on tinned chipotles (smoked jalapeno peppers), which you puree and add judiciously. The remainder will keep a long, long, time in the refrigerator, so you can spoon a little into marinades, soups, stews, sauces and salad dressings.
