It is really yummy, quick and knocks peoples socks off... you can add or change anything you want...this is just the exact recipe that my Aunt Dodi gave to me... I add things all the time...change is good and fun!

Aunt Dodi’s Chinese Chicken Salad
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts
1 or 2 heads of lettuce
½ pkg Mufan Brand rice stick (follow directions on package for frying)
6 green onions chopped

While I am at it... my Aunt Shirley's Zucchini Casserole.... Zucchini Casserole
Mix Marinade...Pour oven chicken in a baking dish, bake in 325 degree oven for 1 hour. Cool and cut into bite size pieces. Put the chicken in a zip lock bag with the marinade that you cooked in and let marinate again oven night. I drain it in the morning. Cook Rice Sticks. Oven toast almonds and sesame seeds. Lightly steam Peas till just soft but still crunchy. Tear lettuce and put in large bowl and mix in all other ingredients...adding the Rice Sticks last....toss well....serve. ENJOY!!!

½ cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
2 tsp. Baking powder
½ tsp. Salt
3 tbles. Flour
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
1 4oz can diced green chilies

Parboil whole zucchini in salted water till semi soft about 4 minutes. Drain, cool and cube (leaving on skin). Mix all the ingredients together and then pour into a 9” casserole. Dot with butter…sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese…bake 30 minutes at 350.

Ooh! Can always use another Chinese recipe. Glad I stumbled on your blog today!
Yummy ... if only I knew what Rice Sticks are.
Hi Rosanna...
I said the same thing when I got the recipe ...what the ????!!! They are the rice noodles in a package that look all hard and tightly packed together...ad you can either 'boil' them or fry them...they are the ones that whe you drop them into hot oil...they 'POOF' up right away...and get light and fluffy!
If you have a store that sells Asian foods...you will find them there...
Hugs,
Jodi

Hi Julie....
Cinese Snow Peas are the really flat peas you see a lot in chinese food... really good...but in truth...any pea pod would work in this dish. I really like the british name for things... it makes food sound so much better...
Hugs,
Jodi
Hi Susan...
You won't be sorry...this will quickly become a favorite!!
Let me know what you think...
Hugs,
Jodi
These both sound fantastic! I can't wait to try them. You have perfect timing with the zucchini recipe as our plants will start producing by the dozen soon. :-)
Hi Kat...
OooOoOoo I am so jealous of all you who can easily grow zucchinis ...I swear I would eat it morning noon and night....
Enjoy

Jodi
