How To Make chinese chicken salad

  • 1
    In a blender prepare the dressing: sugar, sesame oil, red wine vinegar, peanut oil, salt and pepper.
  • 2
    In a large bowl: lettuce, chow mein, wonton strips,oranges and almonds
  • 3
    Add in the prepared dressing slowly until you get the desired amount of dressing on your salad. I usually mix only what I'm going to use & have dressing left over. It makes a really big salad.

    It gets soggy quick so be sure to hold off on tge dressing until you are ready to serve.
