A twist on one of my mom’s go-to quick and easy dinners. This meal used to be a favorite of mine, so I couldn’t wait to dress up some of our beautiful Napa cabbages and provoke some nostalgia!
The cabbage leaves are incredible juicy, full of flavor and make this salad better than ever before. This recipe takes nearly no time to make (other than needing to roast a chicken), the actual salad prep is next to nothing. Which makes this recipe attractive for the days when you just don’t have it in you to spend much time in the kitchen.
Salad Ingredients:
~3lb roasted chicken
1 bag of our Braising Mix (or 1 large head of Napa Cabbage chopped)
2 medium carrots, sliced
a handful of toasted almonds
Dressing Ingredients:
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
