ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.
• To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.
• In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.

Add halved cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced cucumbers, sliced red onions, and sliced avocado to the bowl or place on individual plates. Add the sliced chicken on top. Drizzle with the dressing (see next step to prepare), toss to combine, and serve immediately.
• DRESSING: Whisk the ingredients for the dressing, along with a big pinch of salt and black pepper. Whisk until smooth. If not using immediately, transfer to a mason jar and refrigerate. (Leftovers stay good for 5-7 days).
• STORAGE: Dressed salad doesn't sit well, so if you want to have leftovers or make ahead, store the dressing separately from the salad.

CRISPY CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare the marinade in a bowl. Rinse the chicken breast halves, pat dry with paper towels and pierce them with a needle type tenderizing tool such as the Deni tenderizing tool. Add the chicken breast halves to the bowl of marinade, toss to coat, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator till the grill is ready.
• Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a deep cast iron skillet to 400 degrees F. If using a skillet, add enough oil to at least 1 inch deep with oil. Gently separate the rice sticks as much as you can and drop into the hot oil. It should only take a second or two for the rice sticks to completely puff up. Remove from oil and immediately drain on paper towels and set aside.
• In a small bowl, mix the sesame-ginger salad dressing and desired amount of Sriracha sauce, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator till needed.
• Prepare an outdoor grill for grilling. Grill the chicken till the juices run clear and the meat is no longer pink (internal temperature of 165 degrees F). Remove the cooked meat from the grill and allow the meat to rest for 5 minutes. Shred the meat with a couple of forks, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator till the rest of the salad is prepared.
• Rinse and shred the lettuce and cabbage then divide it between two serving bowls. Top each salad serving with equal amounts of shredded carrots, sliced celery, sliced scallions and shredded cooked chicken. Pour the salad dressing over each serving and top each serving with and equal amount of fried rice sticks.

THAI STEAK SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare steak marinade by mixing 6 tablespoons fish sauce, 2 tablespoons palm sugar or brown sugar, and 2 teaspoons of cracked black pepper in a small bowl.
• Marinade steaks for 15-30 minutes at room temperature. Don't marinade steaks for more than about 30 minutes or it will result in a super salty steak. You can either marinade steaks in a large container or large galloon-sized ziplock. I prefer marinading the steaks in a large ziplock bag and massaging the marinade into the steaks. Set aside.
• Prepare salad dressing by cut two cherry tomatoes in half or a 1/4 of a small tomato. Place tomatoes, 2 1/2 tablespoons of palm sugar or brown sugar, and optional Thai red chilis into a pestle and mortar. If you prefer a non-spicy salad dressing, you can leave out the chilis. However, if you want a slight kick, add in 1 to 2 Thai chilis to your preferred spice level. I recommend starting with 1 Thai chili and adding more as necessary. For reference, I use 2 chilis for a medium spice level.
• Use pestle and mortar to mash everything together until sugar as melted into tomatoes and chilis are broken into smaller pieces. Add in 6 tablespoons of lime juice and 1 tablespoon of fish sauce to the mortar. Use pestle to mix and mash everything together. Give salad dressing a taste and adjust taste to preference. Set aside.
• Prepare salad ingredients. Wash and cut romaine lettuce, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and red onions into small bite-sized pieces. Chop mint and green onions into small pieces. Combine all ingredients in a large salad bowl for serving.
• Remove steaks from marinade and use a paper towel to remove excess marinade from steak. A dry steak helps create a nice crust on the steak when cooking.
• Heat up a cast iron or frying pan with a drizzle of oil and high heat. When oil is really hot, carefully add in steaks. For a steak cooked medium, cook 4 minutes on one side, flip the steak, and then cook for another 2 minutes on the other side. Use a food thermometer to test doneness of steak. A medium steak should have an internal temperature of 135º F to 140º F. Adjust cooking time more or less according to your preferred steak doneness. Remove steaks from pan, cover with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes.
• After resting, cut steaks into thin slices. Mix salad dressing with salad ingredients and extra herbs. Serve with sliced steaks and enjoy!
