Sesame-Lime Chicken Salad Recipe

Recipe By Real Simple

An asian-inspired entre salad that comes together in 15 minutesand comes in under 500 calories? Yes, please This recipe relies on cooked, shredded chicken (pick up a rotisserie bird, or cook a bit extra earlier in the week) and packaged crispy chinese noodles, such as la choy chow mein noodles, for a crunchy, protein-rich salad. Chili pepper, fresh cilantro, and toasted sesame seeds round out the flavor. Our sesame-lime chicken salad is substantial enough for dinner but also makes a great packed lunch; store the dressing in a small bottle and dress the salad just before tucking in to maintain all that crunchy freshness.
