How to Make Asian Chicken Salad

GET READY……

  

Toast your almonds while you prepare the rest of the salad.   Chop 2 cups of raw almonds

 
 
 
Sprinkle onto a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.  The time depends on your individual oven.  Set the timer to stir every 5 minutes.  The almonds are perfectly toasted when you can smell them and they are a soft golden brown…. the color of honey.  EXCELLENT! 
 
 
Note:  If the sesame seeds you are using are not already toasted.  Toss them on the pan with the almonds and toast them together!  Let them cool before tossing in the salad.
