  • Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
6 Cups Bagged Coleslaw Mix (shredded cabbage/carrots)12 oz boneless/skinless Chicken breast3 Green Onion sliced1 Pkg Udon Noodles8 Tsp Sunflower Seeds (salt free)Dressing Ingredients:1/4 Cups Sugar1/4 tsp. Salt1/2 tsp. black pepper1/3 C Light Seasoned Rice Vinegar2 tbs Extra Light Olive Oil1/3 C Cider Vinegar2 Tbs diced fresh Ginger1 diced Jalapeno (optional)2 Tbs Light Soy Sauce
Directions
Grill or broil chicken breast and set aside to cool completely. When cool, dice and set aside until salad is done.

Cook Udon noodles according to directions, rinse in cool water and set aside as well. These will be added at the end.

Whisk all dressing ingredients together in a small bowl and pour over shredded cabbage, toss well to coat.

Add green onions, noodles and chicken to bowl, toss well once again. Salad will taste best if left to chill at this stage for up to an hour but it is definitely not required.

Top with 2tsp sunflower seeds each right before serving.

Serving size is approximately 1.5-2 cups each depending on fineness of cabbage shreds and thickness of noodles.

Leftovers the next day are superb so don't hesitate to "make too much"!

    Super super tasty. I changed it just a wee bit using only 1 tbs of sesame oil (I like the taste) and used the Mr Noodle fresh chinese noodles. It was so tasty and quick.
    i will make it again! Thanks! - 6/3/09

    i almost didn't make it because the calorie count was so high, but when i went into the detailed view, i saw that 212 calories were attributed to pepper so i knew that i could just adjust it to what the real calories of pepper are and it came out better :) we made it w/o chicken - YUMMY!!! - 7/1/10
