Woman's Day


List of Ingredients




Dressing:
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 Tbsp each sugar and cider vinegar
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp grated fresh ginger or 1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp each salt and pepper

1 head romaine lettuce (about 1 1/4 lb), cut in bite-size pieces (about 8 lightly packed cups)
3 cups (about 12 oz) large shreds cooked chicken
1 cup chow mein noodles
1/2 cup chopped cashew nuts
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds (see Note)
2 scallions, sliced



Recipe



1. Whisk Dressing ingredients in a large bowl until blended.

2. Add remaining ingredients and toss to mix and coat.

Note:
To toast sesame seeds: Place seeds in a small skillet over medium heat and stir often until golden brown. (Keep a close watch. Because of the seeds' high oil content, they brown quite quickly.)
