LAURIE'S CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD WITH 5-SPICE DRESSING
I love Chinese chicken salad and have tried many recipes over the years. This is my favorite. I think it's the 5-spice powder that sets it apart from the others. I got the recipe from my friend Laurie. You do need cook the chicken and make the dressing the night before as it needs to marinate overnight. If you have little ones, they love to watch the "magic" Mai Fun noodles as they hit the oil. This travels well, great for the beach or park. I package each prepared ingredient into separate containers and baggies, and my prepared lettuce goes into a large Tupperware container. When it's time to eat, everything is tossed in with the lettuce. Add a nice baguette and you have an instant lunch or supper. Note: You will not need all 6 ozs. of the Mai Fun noodles; I have only found them in 6 ozs packages. Just fry as much as you think you would like in your salad. You may also want to start with less sugar in your dressing and adjust the sweetness to our tastes. You can buy toasted almonds and sesame seeds or toast them yourself in a frying pan, until fragrant.

Steps:
- The night before serving or early in the morning, place all salad dressing ingredients into a jar with a lid. Shake until well blended and set aside to meld.
- Steam chicken breasts for about 20 minuets, or until juices run clear, let cool.
- Shred cooled chicken into small pieces and mix well with about 2 tablespoons of the dressing. You may use more or less, depending on how much chicken you have. You don't want to saturate it with too much dressing.
- Refrigerate chicken and dressing over night.
- You can fry the Mai Fun now or the next day.
- To fry the Mai Fun noodles:.
- Heat oil to 350°F.
- Break apart noodles and fry a small amount at a time and drain on paper towels or a paper grocery bag. If you have never fried Mai Fun, they immediately expand to the top of the wok as soon as they hit the oil, so doing this in small batches is important.
- Before serving, lightly toss all ingredients together without adding the dressing. This is important because the Mai Fun noodles will quickly absorb your dressing.
- Pour on dressing and toss again.

CHINESE FIVE SPICE CHICKEN SALAD
This recipe was inspired by a meal that I had at a locally owned cafe. Their chicken salad had that distinctive five spice flavor. This is my adaptation with a bit more kick and colorful diced vegetables.

Steps:
- Debone rotisserie chicken & cut into roughly 1/2" pieces.
- Finely dice all of the vegetables.
- Combine chicken & vegetables in a large mixing bowl. Add salt, all spices & lime juice. Mix with a large spoon to combine well. This is best when allowed to sit overnight for the flavors to combine.

Steps:
- Score the skin side of each piece of chicken 2 to 3 times, about 1/8 inch deep.
- Whisk together the the juice of 1/2 lime, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, garlic, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, Chinese five-spice powder, 2 teaspoons hot chile paste, ginger, and soy sauce in a bowl. Pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, coat evenly with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in refrigerator for 6 hours.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove chicken halves from the bag and transfer to a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels. Pat chicken pieces dry with more paper towels. Reserve marinade mixture in a small bowl.
- Whisk together the 1/3 cup rice vinegar, juice of 1/2 lime, 1 teaspoon fish sauce, and 1 teaspoon hot chile paste in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Grill chicken, skin-side down, on the preheated grill for 2 minutes. Turn each piece, brush with reserved marinade mixture, and move to indirect heat.
- Grill, brushing with glaze and turning ever 10-15 minutes, until well-browned and meat is no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes total. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
- Drizzle vinegar lime juice mixture over the chicken and serve.
