Complex, Not Complicated

Have you ever had food FOMO? I totally did when I was out to lunch and saw someone eating this scrumptious looking salad, and I just knew I had to go home and re-create it. And y’all, I gotta say, it’s good. Really good. This Asian Chopped Chicken Salad delivers a complex mix of flavors and textures without being fussy or difficult. It’s so delicious and easy-to-make, it has definitely become one of my favorite salads.

Crisp veggies keep this salad fresh while crunchy cashews and sweet-tart mandarin oranges keep things interesting. Moist, tender chicken makes this fresh salad hearty and filling, so it’s the perfect light meal. For a quick tutorial on making great pan-seared chicken tenders, check out The BakerMama’s Basics tutorial. A rotisserie chicken would also be great and make quick work of your salad prep! You can also use pre-made salad with cabbage and carrots to save time.

How to Make Asian Chopped Chicken Salad

To make the dressing: In a blender, combine all dressing ingredients and blend until smooth. Easy, peasy.

To Make the Salad: In a large bowl, first combine the purple cabbage, napa cabbage, romaine lettuce, shredded carrots, red bell pepper and shredded chicken. Then toss with enough dressing to coat everything well. Gently toss in the mandarin oranges, green onions and cashews.

Transfer to a salad bowl and then garnish with a few extra green onions and cashews. Serve and enjoy!
