CRUNCHY SRIRACHA PEANUT CHICKEN SALAD

January 8, 2020 by Lovoni | Leave a Comment

It doesn’t have to be summer to enjoy a salad; any time of year is good for salad. Especially Crunchy Sriracha Peanut Chicken Salad with a creamy satay-like dressing. This vibrant salad has lots of color & texture thanks to red cabbage, romaine, peanuts & the crumbed chicken, coated in cornflake crumbs because they’re the best for their crunch factor.

It doesn’t take a culinary maven to throw together a salad so I’m not going to prattle on about salad making 101. I will say this: I cooked the chicken in the oven for two reasons – less fat & less mess on my freshly cleaned cooktop & floor. You cook it how you like. Because I love anything breaded more than life itself, I prefer a good glug of oil in the pan & lightly frying the chicken. Either way, the crunch will still be there. When it comes to a good salad, it’s all about the crunch. Well not all about it but you get my drift. Cheers, Lovoni xo

CRUNCHY SRIRACHA PEANUT CHICKEN SALAD

I prefer to serve the chicken still warm perched atop of the salad. Too hot & it will wilt the veggies. Warm is perfect. Use smooth or crunchy peanut butter, whatever you have lurking in your pantry.

Equipment

  • baking sheet

Ingredients

US Customary – Metric
CHICKEN
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, approximately
  • a good pinch of salt & pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups cornflake crumbs
  • 8 chicken tenderloins
DRESSING
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil or light olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (or cashew butter)
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
SALAD
  • 1 romaine lettuce heart shredded, (about 3 handfuls) (cos lettuce)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded red cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrot
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (coriander)
  • 1/3 cup toasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
  • lime wedges to serve optional

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C/gas mark 5).

To make the chicken:

  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, salt & pepper. In a separate shallow bowl, whisk eggs & sauce together. Pour cornflake crumbs into another separate shallow bowl or put them on a piece of waxed paper (that’s what I do to save on washing up). Toss the chicken in the flour mixture. Coat each piece in the egg mixture, letting the excess egg drip into the bowl. Press each piece of chicken into the crumbs. Place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Spray each piece with cooking spray or olive oil. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until chicken is cooked.

To make the dressing:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients until well combined, adding a little more water or lime juice if the dressing is too thick; you want it about honey consistency.

To make the salad:

  • Toss lettuce, cabbage, carrot, green onion & cilantro together in a medium bowl. Drizzle with about half the dressing & lightly toss. Divide salad between four shallow bowls or plates. Slice the chicken & add to the top of the salad. Drizzle with remaining dressing. Sprinkle with peanuts. Serve with lime wedges if desired. Serves 4.

GOOD FOOD. NO GUILT
Some foods’ appearance beguiles the taste & text Some foods’ appearance beguiles the taste & texture. This is one such dish. Super Crunchy Herb, Lemon & Parmesan Chicken served with a lemony, garlic, caper butter. Breaded chicken & fish are favorites of mine. Served simply with some sea salt & lemon wedges or with this lemony butter sauce. Serve with creamy mashed potato & steamed green beans & call me; I’ll be there! I’ll even bring wine xo

There’s something warm & comforting about this cake, especially today. Spring briefly revealed herself to us this past weekend & then she slinked back into the abyss.  Soon. 
Meanwhile I’m still wanting warm & comforting foods making use of the seasonal foods. What are you excited to make as the seasons transition?

Oxtail in Red Wine: when I first added this to my Oxtail in Red Wine: when I first added this to my website & shared it on Pinterest, I almost blew up my Pinterest account. It was so popular. I was shocked. Really I made it for my husband a couple of times and the recipe was so nice I had to share. I thought here the words “ox tail” might turn people away. I was wrong, quite the opposite. Nowadays it’s beef tail not ox because oxen numbers, as far as I’m aware, have been on the decline and is the reason for beef tails being used but they’re still referred to as ox tail.
