Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Asian Chicken Salad.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all your ingredients for a seamless cooking experience.
Step 2
Create a delightful dressing by mixing vegetable oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil (if desired), and soy sauce in a small lidded container.
Step 3
Shake vigorously until well combined, then set it aside to let the flavors meld.
Step 4
In a spacious bowl, combine the chopped lettuce, shredded chicken, sliced green onions, and sesame seeds.
Step 5
Cover the bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes, allowing the ingredients to harmonize.
Step 6
While the salad cools, heat a splash of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-low heat.
Step 7
Break the rice noodles into bite-sized pieces and fry them in small batches until they puff up, which should take around 15 to 25 seconds.
Step 8
Once golden and crispy, transfer the noodles to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
After the salad has chilled, serve it in individual bowls, generously topping each with the crispy fried rice noodles.
Step 10
Drizzle the prepared dressing over the top and enjoy this refreshing dish immediately, savoring the delightful crunch and vibrant flavors.
