Ingredients

Dressing:

2 take-out packets (1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon) duck sauce

2 take-out packets (1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon) mayonnaise 

1 take-out packet (2 teaspoons) soy sauce 

1 take-out packet (a pinch) red chile flakes, or to taste (get these from the pizza place!) 

1 spritz lemon juice (a great way to use wedges from tea) 

Salad:

1 cup chopped (not shredded) cooked chicken breast (about 6 ounces)

1/2 cup loosely packed pre-washed slaw mix (savoy and red cabbage, carrots, etc.) 

1/2 cup loosely packed pre-washed spring lettuce mix 

1 tiny box (1 heaping tablespoon) golden raisins 

Directions

  1. For the dressing: In a medium container with a sealable lid, add the duck sauce, mayonnaise and soy sauce. Stir (coffee stirrer!) and season with red chile flakes and a spritz of lemon juice.
  2. For the salad: Add the chicken, slaw mix, lettuce and raisins. Seal the container and shake vigorously for a few seconds until everything is coated. Eat!

Cook’s Note

Hey, remember those cool fast-food salads that they used to serve in large cups? You can do this as well. Re-purpose an old take-out drink cup that has a lid. Put the dressing on the bottom (if you've already made this once, you know you don't even have to pre-mix the dressing; just squirt the packets in the bottom and spritz the lemon), then layer the cup up with the raisins, chicken, slaw and then the lettuce at the top. Seal it, fridge it and then at lunch, just shake it!!

Clever and delicious way to use up leftover fast food packets.  I usually end up throwing the extra condiment packets away because they just seem to sit around the house forever.  Now I've a reason to keep them around  because I plan to make this one again and again.   The salad comes together quickly with little effort especially with the use of the rotisserie chicken.  I liked it so much that I made it for dinner salad for my husband. He loved it too.  I didn't change a thing.  It's so yummy just as it is.  I may add green onions next time to give it a bit of a bite.  But it doesn't really need any additions or changes.  Great job Sunny!
