Chinese-Style Chicken Salad

(From my former neighbor and 3rd-ward member, Mary Irvine)

 

Ingredients:

cabbage

chicken

butter (or margarine)

lemon pepper

almond slivers (the thick chunky kind - not the thin slices)

sesame seeds

lemon juice

soy sauce

vinegar (rice vinegar is best)

sugar

oil (peanut oil is best)

chow mein noodles

 

Directions:

Shred as much cabbage as you need really small.

Saute bite-sized chicken chunks in butter and lemon pepper.

Brown the almonds in a pan on the stove or in the oven.

Brown the sesame seeds in a pan on the stove or in the oven. (Be aware that they take less time than the almonds, so don't try doing them together.)

Make the dressing by mixing equal portions (1-2 tablespoons of each, depending on how much ingredients you have) of lemon juice, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and oil.

Mix everything together and sprinkle the chow mein noodles on top. (Don't mix them in because they get soggy.)
