Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

4 cups mixed greens (such as romaine, spinach, and arugula)

1 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced

1 cup carrots, julienned

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1/2 cup snap peas, trimmed and halved

1/4 cup green onions, chopped

1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds

1/2 cup peanuts, roughly chopped

1/3 cup rice vinegar

1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos for a gluten-free option)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup

1 teaspoon ginger, grated

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mixed greens, red cabbage, carrots, red bell pepper, snap peas, and green onions.

    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey or agave syrup, grated ginger, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth.

      Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss everything together until well coated.

        Fold in the toasted sesame seeds and chopped peanuts for that extra crunch.

          Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or honey to balance flavors.

            Serve immediately or refrigerate for about 15-30 minutes to let the flavors meld before serving.
