Chi Dynasty's Chinese chicken salad
- Share via
Dear SOS: My wife and I had Chi Dynasty in Studio City recommended to us. We went there last Saturday and had three appetizers, one of which was the Chinese chicken salad. Its menu professed that it was “voted best in town.” I’m not sure who did the voting, but I can certainly say it was one great salad! Can you get the recipe?

Dear John: Chi Dynasty was happy to share its recipe with us, which we’ve adapted below.
Dressing
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, sesame oil and ginger. Taste and adjust seasoning and flavoring as desired. This makes a generous one-half cup of dressing.
Salad assembly
In a large bowl, toss together the lettuce, noodles, chicken, peanuts, ginger, sesame seeds, green onions and cilantro leaves. Add half the dressing, tossing to lightly coat. Taste, and toss in additional dressing as desired. Serve immediately.
