Won Ton Chicken Salad

Here you go Lins....

1 head romaine lettuce
1 head iceberg lettuce
3 chicken breasts cooked and shredded
1 can sliced water chestnuts
1/2 pkg wontons fried and broken into pieces
1 small bag slivered almonds

Dressing:
1 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup SEASONED rice vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp pepper
4-6 green onions

Blend the ingredients for the dressing in blender until smooth and pour over salad RIGHT before serving.
(Case and I think the more green onion the more flavor it has, so I would do all 6 and I usually go about half to three fourths the way up the stem.) Also, I usually like to cook and shred the chicken the night before and sometimes I cook the wontons the night before and just break them up when I'm ready to use them. If I make this all at once, it feels like it takes forever! If I break it up, it feels like it was easy!!

  1. Thank you!! This was delicious and a huge hit at dinner. I really love the dressing. Brons almost ate it all before we even left to go to our friends.

  2. So I'm really excited to make this and got all the ingredients for it, but I'm not sure about the won tons. I was only able to find a bag and it says to just add them to your dish right before serving. The brand is Fresh Gourment. Do you just fry those? Or do they also come uncooked or something?
