For those nights when you are running by the grocery store after work with absolutely not plan for dinner… this 20 Minute Asian Chopped Rotisserie Chicken Salad is for you!
I may work from home now, but believe me I still find myself looking at the clock around 4:30 wondering what in the heck are we going to make for dinner tonight?? (See also: meal plans) There will just always be those nights when you don’t have your stuff together – I got you 🙂
Here is all you need to do – swing by the grocery store and grab a rotisserie chicken and some of those pre-shredded bags of cabbage and carrots along with a few other random toppings and you will be on your way! When you get home, throw it all in a bowl together (but take the extra 3 minutes to peel some mango ribbons – you will thank me later) and then grab your jar of Georgia Grinders cashew butter and whip on a dreamy cashew dressing. You can thank me later!!

Your new go-to salad for those weeknights when you have nothing planned!
Ingredients
Asian Cashew Dressing
- 1 Tablespoon + 1 Teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 cup Georgia Grinders cashew butter
- 1 Tablespoon + 1 Teaspoon fish sauce
- 1/2 cup coconut aminos
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 Teaspoon fresh lime juice
Chopped Salad
- 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded (4-6 cups, approx.)
- 1 mango, use vegetable peeler to peel into ribbons
- 4 cups shredded green cabbage
- 2 cups shredded purple cabbage
- 1 cup green onion, chopped
- 2 cups fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
- 2 cups raw cashews
- 2 cups shredded carrots
- 1 lime, sliced
Instructions
Dressing:
- Combine ingredients in medium mixing bowl and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Add additional water, 1 Tablespoon at a time, if you want a less thick consistency.
Salad:
- Place green cabbage, carrots, mango ribbons and purple cabbage into bowls.
- Add green onion, cilantro, cashews and lime.
- Top with chicken.
- Serve with dressing.
Notes
- This could easily be meal-prepped for work (similar to this Work Lunch Greek Chicken Salad). Just put your chicken on the bottom, then cashews, carrots, mango, shredded cabbage, green onion and cilantro. Store your dressing separately to add later.
- You could also make this Sunday Butterflied Chicken beforehand instead of buying a rotisserie chicken.
- You could also simply boil whole boneless chicken breasts in water for approx. 20 minutes (or until chicken is fully cooked) and then shred.
