Recipe Summary Mandarin Chicken Pasta Salad
I had this at a party and couldn't get it off my mind. It's a fruity Asian chicken salad that even my family's picky eaters enjoy. I bake my own chicken for more flavor, which adds to the prep time, but pre-cooked or canned chicken will also work just fine.Ingredients | Healthy Spinach Salad Recipes1 teaspoon finely chopped, peeled fresh ginger⅓ cup rice vinegar¼ cup orange juice¼ cup vegetable oil1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix2 teaspoons white sugar1 clove garlic, pressed1 (8 ounce) package bow tie (farfalle) pasta½ cucumber - scored, halved lengthwise, seeded, and sliced½ cup diced red bell pepper½ cup coarsely chopped red onion2 diced Roma tomatoes1 carrot, shredded1 (6 ounce) bag fresh spinach1 (11 ounce) can mandarin orange segments, drained2 cups diced cooked chicken½ cup sliced almonds, toastedDirectionsTo make the dressing, whisk together the ginger root, rice vinegar, orange juice, vegetable oil, sesame oil, soup mix, sugar, and garlic until well blended.
