Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the chicken

If using raw chicken, season with salt and pepper. Cook in a skillet over medium heat until no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes. Let cool, then shred or dice. If using rotisserie chicken, simply shred or dice.

2
Prepare the vegetables

Thinly slice or shred cabbage. Peel and grate or julienne carrots. Slice cucumber into thin half-moons. Thinly slice green onions.

3
Make the dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together sesame oil, soy sauce, vinegar, and honey. Add half the sesame seeds and whisk to combine.

4
Toast the sesame seeds

In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast remaining sesame seeds until golden, about 2-3 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool.

5
Assemble the salad

In a large bowl, combine cabbage, carrots, cucumber, and most of the green onions. Add the chicken. Drizzle with about 3/4 of the dressing. Toss to coat evenly.

6
Serve

Divide salad among four plates or bowls. Drizzle with remaining dressing. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and remaining green onions. Serve immediately.
