Instructions

Start by marinating the chicken with your favorite grilled sesame chicken recipe (or use pre-cooked grilled chicken).,Prepare the sesame ginger dressing and set it aside.,In a large bowl, combine the shredded green and red cabbage, green onion, cilantro, carrots, red bell pepper, and diced jalapeño. Drizzle the sesame ginger dressing over the salad and toss everything to combine. Cover and set aside to let the flavors meld together.,Grill or bake your sesame chicken as per the recipe instructions.,Once the chicken is cooked, slice it and add it to the top of the salad. Garnish with toasted almonds, roasted cashews, sesame seeds, extra cilantro, green onion, and jalapeño slices. For an added crunch, sprinkle some crispy wonton strips on top. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a vegan option, omit the chicken and replace it with tofu or chickpeas.,Try a twist with a healthy Thai-inspired peanut dressing instead of the sesame ginger dressing.,You can add fruits like mandarin oranges, mango, or pineapple for a sweet touch.
