Asian Salad

Asian Chicken Salad is one of the first recipes I posted on my blog almost 10 years ago. I don’t think it got the recognition it deserved. It kind of just got lost in the mix. Because this salad is so delicious and healthy, I thought it was time for a re-post. 

This salad was served at a steakhouse I worked at when I was in high school. Working at Rococo’s taught me so much and was one of the best jobs I’ve ever had. Being around chefs opened my eyes to a world of amazing food. Before I worked there I had never eaten seafood or veal, or a green salad with fruit in it…

I make this Asian Chicken Salad at least once a month because we love it so much. It has romaine lettuce, pineapple tidbits, mandarin oranges, sliced apples and is topped with marinated chicken and sliced almonds. What takes it over the top is the creamy Poppyseed dressing. It is absolutely delectable!
