Ingredients

Salad

  • 4 cup mixed baby greens

  • 1 cup shredded poached chicken

Dressing

  • 3 tablespoon salad oil

  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger

  • 1 clove garlic

  • 2 green onions (including tops)

  • ¼ cup rice vinegar

  • 3 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 2 tablespoon shredded pickled ginger (optional)

  • Cooking oil for frying

  • 1 ounce rice stick noodles

  • ½ cup sliced almonds

Directions

  1. Combine salad ingredients in a large serving bowl and toss well. Cover and refrigerate.

  2. Place a small saucepan over medium-high heat until hot. Add 3 tablespoons oil, swirling to coat sides. Add ginger, garlic, and green onions; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add vinegar, soy sauce, honey, chili garlic sauce, and sesame oil. Cook, stirring, until mixture comes to a boil. Stir in pickled ginger. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. In a wok, heat oil for deep-frying to 350° over medium heat. Add rice stick noodles and deep-fry for about 5 seconds or until they puff and expand. Turn over and cook other side. Lift out and drain on paper towels.

  4. Drizzle dressing over salad; toss until well mixed. Just before serving, mix noodles and toasted almonds into salad. Serve at once, while noodles are still crisp.
