Asian Chicken Salad

We bought a rotisserie chicken this week with the idea of making chicken salad. The problem with chicken salad in our house is that my husband does not eat mayonnaise. We also had fresh peas in our fridge and decided we would try a chicken salad with an Asian flair.


Asian Chicken Salad

Dressing:
Juice of one orange
Juice of half of a lime
1-2 Tbsp Rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1-2 tsp ginger garlic paste
stream in olive oil to desired consistency while whisking (ie: I forgot to measure it)

Add the picked rotisserie chicken to the dressing and allow it to soak up the juices for a few minutes.

To the chicken, I added one pound (pre-shelled weight) of peas, 1-2 handfuls shredded carrots, one handful cilantro chopped, and 1-2 handfuls chow mien noodles. Toss and enjoy!
