Really delcious! As one user suggested, I added a lime vinegarette to the lettuce (see below). http://allrecipes.com/recipe/lime-cilantro-vinaigrette/detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=lime%20vinegarette&e8=Quick%20Search&event10=1&e7=Home%20Page

Glad to have this recipe finally after eating this incredible salad. It was a little on the milder side (it is usually hotter when ordered in a Chinese restaurant). I will add red pepper flakes next time.

Tasted fabulous. I would probably add some oil or something to thin the dressing out a little as it was a bit pasty. But delicious nonetheless! I actually made extra of this honey chicken recipe and simply made the salad with leftovers http://allrecipes.com/recipe/yummy-honey-chicken-kabobs/detail.aspx

bf liked this more than i did.. i felt the dressing was a lil too peanut-y for me.. but we had no problems devouring the whole thing.. used ramen in place of the wonton wrappers.. i totally forgot the carrots.. doh!.. didn't have the brown sugar so i just left it out.. used bbq sauce in place of hoisin.. used dried instead of fresh ginger.. ty for the recipe ~~~~UPDATE.. so i did this a second time.. and figured i probably just used too much PB the first time.. but even after going strictly by the PB amount.. it was still too much PB for me.. only change to the dressing this time was to double the chili sauce.. added half a cup of bean sprouts.. 10 baby corn chopped up.. doubled the cilantro.. forgot the ramen ugh.. and only had 3/4 lb of chicken breast.. i liked it MUCH more this time..

I loved this, but my husband thought the peanut dressing was too sweet, and the kids just didn't care for peanut in their salad. :(

This recipe is great, as is! I did use ready-made chow mein noodles to save time. I also typically grill chicken breasts in advance, then slice then, put a portion in snack-sized zip lock bags, then freeze them for use on salads later. I take a pkg out of freezer and put in microwave for 45-60 seconds when I want some for a salad. I also per-grate ginger and wrap 1 tsp portions in plastic wrap, then put them all in a labeled zip lock and when needed, I put a tsp pkg in microwave for 15 seconds. This way I also have access to fresh grated / chopped ginger without a lot of work. For the grated carrots, either grate last or sprinkle with lemon juice to slow down the oxidizing which causes them to go brown quickly after grating.

Awesome salad!! That dressing is SO GOOD!!! I subbed the hoisin sauce because I didn't know I was out with ponzu sauce with a little extra brown suger. Love the crunchy wonton wrappers! Added some sesame seeds on top! YUM!

This was very good! I agree w/ others that the dressing is waaay too thick, so I thinned mine w/ a little veg. oil and mandarine orange liquid from the can (I used the oranges in the salad). I wanted this as a side salad, so I did omit the chicken, but added the mandarine oranges, as I said, and some red and yellow bell pepper that I had to use up. I would make this again! Thanks for sharing. :)

This was really good! I used this as a cook once, eat twice salad from chicken we grilled the night before. The dressing is wonderful!! However, it is tad rich for us, so I used a lime vinaigrette dressing on the lettuce and drizzled the hoisin/pb dressing over the top and served it on the side as dipping sauce. i would definitely make this again Thank you!
