Mandarin Chinese Chicken Salad by Buy This Cook That
If you love a great salad, this Mandarin Chinese Chicken Salad is a must try. First, we start with a tender bed of healthy greens. Then, we top it with savory, marinated chicken and loads of colorful-crisp veggies. For crunch and texture, we got a little crazy with the almonds and crispy wonton strips. What pulls it all together is the crave-worthy homemade ginger dressing.
