Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Slice chicken strips and set aside.
- In a large, nonreactive pot, heat sugar and water together over medium high heat, stirring occasionally, until caramelized to a deep amber color. Remove from heat and slowly (and very carefully--use an oven mitt!) add wine. Return to heat and stir until all particles are dissolved. Stirring constantly, add orange juice and wasabi, adjusting the amount to taste.
- Brush chicken strips with the glaze, and then place on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until heated through.
- While chicken is warming, toss together the tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, avocados, salt, pepper and hot sauce. Adjust seasonings to taste, and spoon mixture onto the greens. Top with warmed chicken strips and serve.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl using a fork.
- Be sure you know how hot your particular brand of wasabi is, so you put enough!
- Serve open faced on toast, or better yet, a toasted everything bagel.
- This would also be good with canned turkey or tuna.
- I recommend the low sodium soy because the canned chicken is already very salty.

Steps:
- Whisk 1/4 cup poppy seed dressing, 2 tablespoons wasabi peas, and 1 teaspoon sesame seeds in a large glass or ceramic bowl; add chicken and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator, about 1 hour.

- Place lettuce in a salad bowl; add pear, cranberries, remaining 2 tablespoons wasabi peas, and remaining 1 teaspoon sesame seeds.
- Remove chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Cook chicken on the grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cool chicken slightly and slice.
