Chicken-Noodle-Cabbage Salad

Recipe Author: Conne Ward Cameron

If you eat chicken, you’ve got at least a dozen chicken salad recipes. If you eat cabbage, you’ve got at least a dozen slaw recipes. But this is a nice change, combining some of my favorite flavors. Maybe you still have a green onion hiding in the vegetable bin?

Ingredients:

3/4 pound soba noodles 1/4 cup soy sauce 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 teaspoon granulated sugar 1 garlic clove, minced 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger 3/4 pound shredded cooked chicken 2 green onions, thinly sliced 1/4 head cabbage, cored and thinly sliced

Preparation:

In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles according to package directions.

While soba is cooking, in a large bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, oil, sugar, garlic and ginger.

Drain soba and rinse with cold water. Drain again. Transfer to bowl with soy mixture. Add chicken, scallions and cabbage. Toss to combine.
