Instructions
Creating this Thai Peanut Chicken Crunch Slaw Salad is simple if you follow these easy steps:
1. Cook the Chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken breasts for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it cool before slicing it into thin strips.
2. Prep the Vegetables: While the chicken is cooking, prepare the vegetables. Shred the cabbage, carrots, and slice the bell pepper and cucumber. Set aside in a large bowl.
3. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey or maple syrup, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Whisk until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
4. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked chicken, green onions, and cilantro to the bowl of vegetables. Drizzle the peanut dressing over everything.
5. Toss to Combine: Gently toss the salad until all ingredients are well coated with the dressing.
6. Serve: Garnish with chopped peanuts for added crunch and flavor.
