This recipe is inspired by a similar salad from The Pioneer Woman. I’ve frugalized it and tweaked it so that it’s my very favorite salad – ever.
1 pound linguini, cooked according to package directions, rinsed and drained
4 grilled chicken breast halves, chopped
1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
1 head romaine lettuce, torn into bite sized pieces
1 red bell pepper, julienne cut
2 carrots, peeled and grated
3 green onions, chopped
1 can sliced water chestnuts
1/2 toasted slivered almonds
1 bunch cilantro, rinsed
Dressing:
6 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 1/2 Tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon crushed red papper flakes
1 teaspoon wasabi powder
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 cup sesame oil
3/4 cup vegetable oil
We like to serve all the elements separately: chicken, noodles, vegetables, and dressing. This way everyone can choose how much he wants to put on his plate. It is absolutely delicious.

Ooh, doesn’t this look good. I’ll bet the wasabi powder is a nice addition to the dressing.

Yum-O! There are so many ingredients here that I don't stock; I'll have to come to your house for a taste.
