Chinese Chicken Salad

I've been tweaking my Chinese chicken salad recipe for a while and tonight I feel like I nailed it! So thought I would share. All 5 Lee children and 1 Lee husband ate this and liked it. 

Megan's Chinese Chicken Salad :)

Grilled Chinese Chicken

1 1/2 lbs Chicken breasts, skinless boneless (I used 3 small chicken breasts)

3 cloves Garlic
2 tsp Ginger
2 tbsp Onion or 1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 cup Soy sauce
1/2 cup Brown sugar
1/4 cup Rice vinegar
2 tbsp Sesame oil

Directions
Combine all ingredients and marinade chicken for 30 minutes. Grill until cooked through. Cover with foil while chicken cools. Then chop chicken. 
(I like to put the chicken in the fridge and eat the following day with cold chicken, if you like it hot chop chicken and put on salad hot)

Salad

1 head of red leaf lettuce, chopped
6 green onions, chopped
1 c. purple cabbage, finely chopped 
1 red pepper, finely chopped
1/2 c. cilantro, chopped

1 package of top ramen noodles crushed, discard seasoning

Dressing

1/3 c. sugar

1/2 c. seasoned rice vinegar

1/2 c. vegetable oil (I like avocado)

1 t. salt

1/2 t. pepper

Whisk all ingredients to combine. 

Toss salad ingredients, chopped chicken, and dressing (may not need all of the dressing).
