Cooking Instructions
Dressing Ingredients:
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoons Chile-garlic sauce (found in Asian isle)
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon tahini paste (found in Asian isle)
3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth, or reserved chicken-poaching liquid
Salad Ingredients:
1 cup of Angel Hair pasta
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
8 cups shredded Napa cabbage, (1 small head, found in Asian isle)
1 1/2 cups grated carrots, (2-3 medium)
5 radishes, sliced (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup chopped scallions
3 1/2 cups shredded skinless cooked chicken, (about 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast)
Directions:
Dressing:
Combine soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil and Chile-garlic sauce in a glass measuring cup. Stir to blend.
Heat canola oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
Add ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the soy sauce mixture to the pan and bring to a simmer.
Whisk in the tahini and broth (or poaching liquid). Cook until reduced slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool.
Salad:
Heat a small dry skillet over medium-low heat.
Add sesame seeds and cook, stirring, until lightly browned and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
Transfer to a small plate to cool.
Combine cabbage, carrots, radishes, scallions and chicken in a large shallow bowl.
Stir dressing to recombine, then drizzle over the salad and toss to coat. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
To Poach Chicken:
Combine two 14-ounce cans of reduced-sodium chicken broth, 2 chopped scallions, 2 slivers of fresh ginger and 2 cloves of garlic in a large skillet. Bring to a simmer.
Add 1 1/2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breast and cook over medium heat until no longer pink inside – about 10 to 15 minutes.
Add the chicken to the salad and dressing.
