MAI FUN SALAD WITH CHICKEN



Mai Fun Salad with Chicken image

A good friend of mine who is also an excellent cook served this elegant but very easy-to-make salad at a luncheon years ago. She shared her recipe and I've been using it with great success ever since. It is delicious and everyone who tries it loves it! It's a great brunch or luncheon entree and also is good on a buffet table. It's an easy recipe to double and if you're asked to bring a salad, it travels well and is easy to assemble. I always make extra dressing for the table.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 head romaine lettuce, torn,washed and dried
2 chicken breast halves
1 bunch scallion, chopped
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1/4 cup sesame seeds, toasted
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
1 1/4 ounces packages mai fun rice noodles (Sai Fun bean noodles also works if you can't find Mai Fun)
canola oil, for frying the mai fun noodles
3 -6 tablespoons sugar (to your taste, I use about 3 T.)
1 teaspoon salt
1 lemon, juice of
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
4 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/4 cup canola oil, not olive oil

Steps:

  • The day before: Steam the chicken breasts until cooked through, about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • While they are steaming, mix together the dressing ingredients (if you have a hand blender, emulsify them) and set aside.
  • When chicken breasts halves are just cool enough to handle, shred them and place in a zip-loc bag.
  • Pour dressing over the chicken.
  • Press as much air as possible out of the bag and marinate overnight (in the refrigerator), turning over once or twice.
  • Toast the almonds and sesame seeds in separate pans in a 300º oven until evenly browned.
  • Stir them often and watch carefully as they both burn quickly.
  • Cool and store in the refrigerator.
  • The next day: In a small pot, heat 1 1/2- 2 inches oil until very hot.
  • Drop in small amounts of Mai Fun noodles and watch them puff up!
  • (takes about a second).
  • Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on paper towels.
  • Do this just before serving if at all possible.
  • (If it's necessary to do ahead of time, let the puffed noodles cool completely and store in a ziploc bag or other air-tight container till ready to serve.) Put lettuce and scallions in a large bowl.
  • Pour chicken and dressing over lettuce.
  • Add oranges, almonds and sesame and toss to mix well.
  • Top with Mai Fun noodles and serve.
