Chinease Chicken Salad:
So we call this Chinease chicken salad in my family, but there is nothing chinease about it except that you use two packages of ramen noodles, and MSG.
Ingredients
- 2 pkgs. Top Ramen chicken flavored noodles
- 3 chicken breasts, cooked
- 1/2 head shredded cabbage
- 3 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds
- 3 tbsp. toasted sliced almonds
- 3 tbsp. sugar
- 3 tbsp. lemon juice
- 6 tbsp. oil
- 1 tsp. Accent
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. pepper
- 1/2 c. chopped green onions, tops too
Directions
Remove soup packets and set aside. Crunch up dry noodles and place in large bowl. Add cabbage, onions and chicken (chopped). Mix in another small bowl sugar, lemon juice, oil, accent, salt and pepper and contents of the two small soup packets. Mix well. Add sesame seeds and pour dressing over all. Mix thoroughly and cover.Let it set for 24 to 36 hours before serving, tossing it several times. Scatter toasted almonds on top before serving. Do not cook noodles. You can vary this salad by using shrimp flavored soup and putting in baby shrimp, or omit meat and serve vegetarian. Serves: 10 to 12.

Any salad that needs to marinate is a good salad. This is my favorite salad of any salad and also probably the most unhealthy salad that can be generated.
I used to make a version of this all the time...It tastes great, goes over well for parties & its easy. I should have made it for the superbowl but instead opted for your moms cheeseplate...
