Chicken Cabbage Salad with Peanut Sauce

As you may know, Shana is recovering from not one, but two gallbladder surgeries and I thought she might need a hand keeping up her recipe blog. So, here is one of my favorite rotisserie chicken recipes.

THE INGREDIENTS

1/3 cup rice wine vinegar

¼ cup olive oil

2 teaspoons sesame oil

¼ cup bottled Thai peanut sauce

½ head napa cabbage

1 cup shredded carrots

4 scallions

1 whole rotisserie chicken (completely cooled)

2 teaspoons black sesame seeds

Pepper to taste

(Optional: If you like dressing sweeter, add Splenda to taste – I do!)

Step One:

Mix the first 4 ingredients and set aside. (Optional – I like my dressing sweeter, so I’ve added 2 packets of Splenda ).

Step Two: Chop your cabbage and carrots (or buy the shredded kind) and place them in a bowl.

Step Three: Shred your rotisserie chicken and place on top of the cabbage and carrots.

Step Four: Toss the salad with the dressing, divide onto 6 plates.

Step Five: Thinly slice your scallions and divide evenly on plated chicken and cabbage mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, add pepper to taste, and serve.

THE VERDICT:

DietBuddyDaily – I could eat this ALL DAY! Light and yummy.

DBD’s Hubby – “Needs more lettuce” Duh, it has no lettuce…

DBD’s Son – Didn’t even offer it to him. Veggies would kill him, I’m sure.
