Loved it, and liked the chicken much more here than last night. Next time, I will use leftover teriyaki chicken. I would not go to the effort of making the adobo chicken just to have it for this salad.
0 HelpfulThis was great. It looked so nice on the plate too. I felt like I was a restaurant chef or something.
0 HelpfulLoved the salad dressing! I'm going to make this dressing to keep on hand for random lunch/dinner salads.
0 HelpfulI just love creative salads and this one did not disappoint. The dressing was a little oily and we didn't need much because the chicken was full of juice.
