CHICKEN, EDAMAME & NOODLE SALAD

Such a great salad - only 6 ingredients in the salad. Bursting with flavour & texture and the dressing is very simple.
Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 1 BBQ chicken, broken up into pieces

• 1 packet of either soba, somen or vermicelli noodles

• 1.5 cups edamame beans, defrosted

• 1 packet of store-bought coleslaw mix

• 2 tablespoons of black sesame seeds

• Fresh Asian Herbs, whatever you like. I used coriander and Thai basil

Dressing:

• 2 tablespoons peanut butter

• 1 tablespoon soy sauce

• 1 clove of garlic

• 2 teaspoons honey

• 2 teaspoons lime juice

• 3 tablespoons of water

Method:

1. For the dressing - combine all ingredients in a jar and shake well. Test it and adjust it to taste. If it’s too thick, add tiny bits of water until you reach a thinner consistency.

2. For the salad - cook your noodles as per packet directions. Drain, run cold water through them and set them aside.

3. To assemble the salad - combine the noodles, bbq chicken, edamame beans, coleslaw mix, fresh herbs and sesame seeds. Drizzle on the dressing and gently combine.

Tip for the dressing. It will last in the fridge for about 7-10 days. So make a bigger batch and you have a beautiful dressing ready to go.
