ORIENTAL CHICKEN SALAD WITH CRUNCHY RAMEN NOODLES
This is a salad that even non-cabbage eaters love. It is nice and crunchy with great flavor. I once took it to a potluck in my apartment complex and then had to put the recipe up on the bulletin board because everyone wanted the recipe!

Steps:
- Prepare dressing and set aside.
- Smash noodles of Top Ramen (discard seasoning packets) and brown over medium heat in 3 tbs oil.
- Once noodles have begun to slightly brown, add slivered almonds.
- If you start to brown the Ramen and almonds at the same time, the almonds will burn before the Ramen browns.
- Once the ramen noodles have turned a dark golden brown, remove from heat and set aside.
- Combine cabbage, green onions, chicken and sunflower seeds in a large bowl.
- Add the ramen/almond mixture and stir well.
- Add dressing and stir to coat.
- I generally prepare the dressing right before serving.
- If it sits in the refrigerator too long, it gets very thick and won't remix well.
- Also, this amount of dressing is just the right amount to give the salad a good coating.
- If you are one of those who likes more dressing, I would recommend making 1/2 batch of extra dressing.
- If you plan on eating this left over, keep in mind that the noodles will not stay crunchy.

Steps:
- For the salad: Remove the skin from the chicken and shred the meat with a fork. Toss in a large bowl along with the scallions, red pepper, cabbage, lettuce, bean sprouts, water chestnuts, cilantro, peanuts and chow mein noodles. With a sharp knife, cut the peel from one of the oranges, then cut the segments away from the membranes. Coarsely chop the segments, then add them to the bowl. Slice the other orange in half and squeeze over a small bowl, reserving 2 tablespoons juice.
- Make the dressing: Whisk together the reserved orange juice, hoisin sauce, vinegar, ginger and garlic in a small bowl. Slowly add the oil, whisking constantly, until emulsified and thick; season with salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad, then season with salt and pepper. Toss and serve.
CRUNCHY ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD
I love their crunchy, citrusy salad so much that once I made my husband drive an hour to the nearest Applebee's restaurant just so I could eat it! It was time to come up with my own version.
