I adapted this recipe from one someone gave me at church. It's a light meal, perfect for summer time, and really good. It's also a great way to stretch a little bit of chicken. My kids both ate a huge bowl of this for dinner.
I used Kraft Asian Toasted Sesame and was very pleased with the flavor. I cooked the chicken in the dressing in the crockpot and it turned out perfectly. I fried my own wonton strips using wonton wrappers from the deli section, but you could buy pre-fried wonton strips with the other salad toppings.
Wonton Sesame Chicken Salad (serves 4)
1 head romaine lettuce, shredded
1 chicken breast, cooked and shredded
1 cup uncooked pasta (I used shells)
3 green onions, sliced
mandarin oranges *optional (my family doesn't like this)
wonton strips
sesame seeds
Asian sesame dressing
Cook the pasta, and rinse with cold water to cool. Mix the lettuce, chicken, pasta and green onions in a large bowl. Plate the salad, and drizzle the dressing on. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and add wonton strips on top.
