Chinese Chicken Salad
This salad is a giant bowl of flavor and crunch and I have yet to meet anyone who doesn’t love it. It’s our favorite salad to bring to a friend’s house, serve at a gathering or eat al fresco during the summer. Give me all the simple recipes so I can enjoy the sunshine – just make sure to double the recipe because it makes for great lunch left overs all week too. Of all of my mom’s salad recipes, this is at the top of our list.
Salad Ingredients
- 1 head shredded cabbage (I obviously buy the pre-shedded bags)
- 1 bunch green onions, diced
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds
- 1 cup cooked chicken, chopped
- 2 top ramen noodle packets, crushed
- A few handfuls of pea pods (or more)
- A few handfuls of shredded carrots (or more)
Dressing Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 6 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 2 packets of Ramen seasoning
Directions
- Make salad: toss all of the salad ingredients together in a large bowl.
- Make dressing: in a small bowl whisk dressing ingredients together.
- Before serving, pour dressing over salad and toss to combine. Enjoy!

I’ve made this recipe for years. But the one I use Cala for “Napa Cabbage”.
Thanks for the memory. Think I’ll make it next week.
