June 15, 2025 • 0 comments
This is a unique and satisfying meal, in which all flavor elements are represented: sweet, salty, bitter, sour, and savory. It's one of our favorite meals during the warmer months that features our beautiful Crane Dance chicken!
Ingredients
- 2 or more large CDF chicken breasts, seasoned with paprika/chili spice and grilled
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1-2 Tbsp maple syrup or CDF honey
- 1 tsp each freshly grated ginger and garlic
- 1/4 cup fish sauce
- Added kick: sprinkle of chili flakes
- Suggestions for Salad: chopped greens/lettuce, shredded cabbage, 6oz or more Thai rice noodles, cucumber, carrots, zucchini, steamed green beans/asparagus/potatoes, mint, basil, cilantro, etc.
Directions
- Grill chicken and cut into strips.
- Dressing: Whisk the lime juice, honey, ginger, garlic, fish sauce and chili flakes in a small bowl and set aside.
- Salad: Design your salad how you'd like with noodles mixed in or in a bed at the bottom. If you have a spiralizer, it's fun to spiralize the carrots and zucchini!
- Place grilled chicken strips on salad and pour dressing overtop. Or...plate each salad individually (or in a pasta bowl) and build how you'd like with dressing drizzled over.
- Enjoy the incredible flavors of this meal!
