If you like Asian flavors then I think you will really enjoy this salad!
Notes from out test kitchen purchasing a ready-cooked deli chicken makes this easy to put together, feel free to change the veggies, coarsley shredded carrots are a nice addition to add into the salad mix, make certain to hand-squeeze out any excess moisture before adding, cooked small shrimp also will work well in this salad
Servings 8-10

1 pound cooked shredded chicken

In a small bowl whisk all dressing ingredient together until well blended; pour over the salad and toss to combine.

NOTE if you are refrigerating the salad for any length of time I suggest to toss a few times during chilling.
