MAI FUN SALAD WITH CHICKEN
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.

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.

- Soak the dried rice noodles as per the instructions on the back of the package. To test whether or not they’ve been soaked enough, take a noodle and chew on it to make sure it’s no longer hard/dry. Drain thoroughly, shaking off the noodles to get rid of excess water.
- In a large bowl, mix the rice noodles with 1 teaspoon of oil and ½ teaspoon dark soy sauce until evenly coated. Set aside.
- Add the chicken to a medium bowl, along with the cornstarch, water, oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, white pepper, five spice, and vegetable oil. Marinate for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the ginger, shallots, carrot, cabbage, and scallions. Have everything ready to go before you turn on the stove.
