I went to Costco and picked up one of their famous rotisserie chickens (what a steal for $5!). Here's an easy and relatively healthy salad to make at home or to bring to a party.
Chinese Chicken Salad (Josephine's version)
For the salad:
2-4 rotisserie chicken breasts, shredded (or mixture of dark & white meat)
1 head napa cabbage, cored and thinly sliced
1 head radicchio, cored and thinly sliced
1 bag of bean sprouts
2 carrots, shredded
4 green onions, thinly sliced (white and green part)
4T sesame seeds, lightly toasted
For the vinaigrette:
2tsp dry Chinese mustard powder (or Colman's powder)
1/4 rice wine vinegar
1tsp soy sauce
2T light sesame oil
3T peanut oil (I used vegetable oil and it was fine)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2T honey
Directions:
1. Mix together all the vegetables in a large serving bowl
2. Top with shredded chicken
3. Place all the vinaigrette ingredients in a blender until smooth. Correct the seasonings as needed.
4. Pour vinaigrette over salad
5. sprinkle sesame seeds on top
