Chinese Chicken Salad With Sesame Dressing

Three months ago, I had dinner at my friend's place. The day before I made a Japanese noodle salad and showed the picture to my friend. He said,' You can also use the roasted sesame sauce to make shredded chicken with cucumber.' That's right! Let's make it with
konjak vermicelli, a tasty Chinese chicken salad.



















Ingredients (3 servings)

300g chicken breast
190g konjak vermicelli
1 cucumber
4 slices ginger 
1 scallion (cut in 3 cm long)

Sauce 
3 tbs roasted sesame dressing
3 tbs vinegar
1 tbs peanut butter 
1 tbs sugar
1 tsp sesame oil
Salt
Pepper



Method

1. Sprinkle a pinch of salt on the chicken breast (both sides) and put the scallion and ginger slices on top. Steam for 15 minutes.

 
















 

















2. Let the chicken breast cool down and shred the chicken breast.

3. Cut the cucumber in long thin strips.

4. Cook the konjak vermicelli in hot water for two minutes, remove from water and put in a bowl with cold water. Drain the konjak vermicelli after 5 minutes.

 
















 

















5. Fridge the chicken breast, cucumber and konjak vermicelli for 2 hours. 

6. Mix the sauce in a small bowl. Taste it!

7. Pour the sauce over the ingredients and mix together.



















Note

* Taste the sauce before pouring over the dish.  

* Add chopped chilli and/ or peanuts to pop up the dish.
