    My whole family loved this recipe, including my 13 and 9 year olds! I did back off a little on the chipotle puree for their sakes, as I thought it would be a little to hot for their liking. One thing you cannot do: put chicken and salad together and toss it with the dressing and have the left overs the next day. The chicken has a very mushy, unpleasant texture if you do that. I used the leftover chipotle puree to make another Bobby Flay recipe: Mesa Grill's Southwestern Potato Salad--another great on from Bobby.

    Surprised at the number of rave reviews. I think the chipotle pepper puree gives this a funky taste. If you want a really excellent asian peanut dressing, read the recipe in the cuisinart book that comes with the food processor.

    I agree w other reviews that this is possibly the best asian salad ever. My kids even liked it. Fool proof to make and restaurant quality. I skip the mint, peanuts and lime but that is partly because I am too lazy to prepare all of those toppings and partly because I like it so much without that I don't want to tamper with perfection.

    Beast asian salad I ever ate! The chapotle pepper sauce is really good. I also left out the mint but will try sometime. Since I had a lot of greens I used iceberg lettuce and romaine. I am sure the cabbage is good too. Thanks Bobbie for a great recipe

    First off, I don't really love peanuts or peanut butter so I was extremely trepidatious about this recipe. I don't even like cooking things in peanut oil because it gives it that peanut flavor I don'e like. However, I love Bobby Flay so I thought I'd give it a try. WOW! I put together the salad but was lazy and ended up putting the entire rotisserie chicken on a platter and then surrounded it with the salad. It looked beautiful and was absolutely declicous. The peanut butter was not overpowering and was balanced so well by the spicey chipotle and the sweetness of the honey and snowpeas. There wasn't a leaf left on the platter when the family was done. I wouldn't change a thing!

    The ruination of any other Asian salad. Period.

    I made this the day after we came home from vacation. At 6 PM, I realized that sad romaine was all we had, except cereal. I popped into the grocery, bought a rotisserie chicken, other veggies, shredded lettuce/carrots in food processor at home, whisked ingredients, and hand-picked the chicken--all in about 15 minutes. I was suspicious that it would be a lack-luster meal, but it was great, actually. Use lime juice on lettuce, as suggested. Surprisingly easy, exotic, fresh-tasting, and lends itself to many fun variations...Bobby slayed it!

    I made this dish for dinner yesterday and could not stop eating. I roasted 2 bone in with skin chicken breasts for 35 mins. at 350 then hand shredded the meat, and used rice vinegar instead of rice wine vinegar because that was all i had, less oil, and w/o peanuts but it turned out great. Next time i will add slivered almonds and fried noodles. Other than that I wouldn't change anything.

    This salad caught my eye because it sounded like the asian chicken salad at one of my favorite restaurants. I am so glad I tried it!! So delicious and great for a hot summer's day. Much better than the same old tired tossed salad. Thanks Bobby!
