Step-by-Step Instructions for Chinese Chicken Salad
  1. Begin by shredding the rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces, ensuring you have about 3 cups. While doing this, wash and chop 2 cups of red cabbage and 1 cup of carrots into thin slices or matchsticks. Slice 3 green onions into thin rounds.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped red cabbage, sliced carrots, and green onions. Gently toss everything together using salad tongs or large spoons.
  3. While your salad base is assembled, grab a jar or bowl to combine your favorite Asian dressing. Shake or whisk until well combined, and adjust with more ingredients if desired.
  4. Serve the Chinese Chicken Salad with the dressing on the side to maintain freshness and crispness.
  5. For meal prep, consider packing the salad ingredients separately from the dressing in airtight containers.
