Directions
Sarasota’s Chinese Chicken Salad, The dressing is what makes this salad great in my opinion. A few special ingredients like sesame oil and sesame seeds make this a great salad for a weeknight dinner. Make the dressing ahead the day before and then it is just a matter of sauteing the chicken and putting the salad together. This is a absolute favorite of mine. I often serve this to friends for a easy but really great dinner., Excellent salad! I made the dressing in my hand blender and added garlic. No carrots and used green onion instead of red onion. Loved how the chicken came out. Loved it and will have it many times again., OH MY GOODNESS!!! What a wonderful treat this recipe is! I was a little leery about the dressing but it is SUPER. Served to a large group and had rave reviews from everyone.

Almonds -- I Also Make These the Day Ahead, So All You Have to Worry About If the Chicken and Putting the Salad Together. Simply Melt the Butter in a Small Non Stick Saute Pan and Cook on Medium Heat Until Golden Brown. Then Add in the Brown Sugar and Stir Until Melted. Remove to a Piece of Parchment Paper or Foil to Let Cool. Make Sure to Spread Out the Almonds Out, Otherwise They Will Stick Together. Just Let Them Cool and Store in a Small Baggie. |
