Best 7 Sweet And Tangy Balsamic Salad With Honey Roasted Peanuts Recipes

ASIAN PEANUT SALAD WITH SWEET & SPICY HONEY ROASTED PEANUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F., and line a rimmed baking sheet with a silpat or strong aluminum foil.
• In a bowl, stir together the nuts, honey, pepper flakes, cayenne, and salt. Spread on the prepared baking sheet into an even layer, and bake for 20 minutes, or until the honey turns a deep caramel color, stirring every 3-5 minutes to prevent burning.
• Remove from the oven and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle on the sugar, and continue to stir until cooled, breaking up clumps as they form. Once the nuts are cool enough to handle, you can use your hands to break up any larger clumps that remain. Once completely cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a couple of weeks.
• Whisk all the ingredients to combine, except 2 TBSP of the toasted sesame seeds. Save these as a garnish for the salad. Store dressing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a couple of weeks. Dressing is best made a day in advance to let the flavors come together.
• In a bowl, combine both of the cabbages, bell pepper, snap pees, and carrots. Garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro. Salad greens can be prepped in advance, and stored in the fridge for up to a few days in a lidded bowl.
• When ready to serve, top with the dressing, reserved sesame seeds, and a handful of honey roasted peanuts. Optionally, add some grilled chicken or shrimp to make the salad a complete meal.
