Ingredients

Dressing/Marinade

3 Tblsp chopped fresh ginger

3 Tblsp chopped fresh garlic

3/4 cup fresh cilantro - washed and dried

1/2 cup fresh mint leaves

3/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 cup soy sauce

3 Tblsp rice wine vinegar (ordinary white vinegar works fine)

1/2 jalapeño - seeded.

2 cups vegetable oil

2 Tblsp toasted sesame oil

Salad:

4 cups finely shredded green cabbage

2 cups shredded Romaine lettuce

1/2 red onion - thinly sliced

3/4 cup red, yellow, green bell pepper - thinly sliced

2 carrots - thinly sliced or shredded

1 stalk celery - thinly sliced

1 cup pineapple - in large dice

1/2 jalapeño - finely minced (optional)

3 Tblsp toasted almonds - slivered

3/4 cup crisp chow mien noodles

fresh mint and cilantro to garnish

2 large chicken breast

Directions

Blend first 9 items in food processor.

Add vegetable oil - slowly, in a stream -until emulsified.

Add sesame oil, remove enough to a separate container to marinate your chicken.

Refrigerate until ready to use.

This dressing will keep 2 weeks in your fridge.

Keep all salad ingredients well chilled until assembly.

'Butterfly' 2 large chicken breasts, place in plastic or glass bowl, cover with marinade and allow to rest 2 hours.

When ready to cook, wipe all excess marinade off breasts and grill at medium/high heat on griddle or over charcoal or wood fire, basting with marinade as it cooks.

Cook 4 minutes on one side, 3 on the other (depending on thickness of breasts).

Meanwhile mix all salad ingredients together, adding JUST ENOUGH of the reserved dressing to flavor the salad (you can always add more - you can't subtract!)

Place salad on well chilled serving plates, top with hot glazed chicken breasts, cut into strips, top with a few reserved almond slices and some fresh cilantro leaves.

Serve immediately.
