    List of Ingredients




    FOR THE MARINADE:
    1 cup prepared Italian salad dressing
    2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
    1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root or 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

    FOR THE CHICKEN SALAD:
    4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
    8 cups torn mixed salad greens
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
    1/4 cup diagonally sliced green onions
    5 fresh California peaches, divided use
    1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
    2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds (optional)

    Recipe



    TO PREPARE THE MARINADE:
    In zip-top plastic bag, combine salad dressing, soy sauce, and ginger. Add chicken; close bag securely, turning to coat well. Refrigerate 30 minutes.

    TO PREPARE THE SALAD:
    Arrange greens on serving plates. Sprinkle with cilantro. Top with green onions.

    Slice 3 peaches and arrange on lettuce.

    Remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade.

    Grill or broil chicken until browned and cooked through, basting occasionally with marinade.

    Halve remaining 2 peaches; baste with marinade and grill about 5 minutes.

    Slice chicken breasts and arrange chicken and grilled peaches on lettuce.

    In small saucepan, bring remaining marinade to a boil (this can be done on the grill, if desired). Add almonds and sesame seeds. Pour over salads and serve immediately.

    Servings: 4
