- 1 bunch cilantro chopped
- 1 package green onions (3-4) chopped
- 4 packages chicken flavored top ramen with seasoning, broken into small pieces
- 2 cups cooked chicken, cubed
- 1/4 cup sesame oil
- 2 Tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/2 rice vinegar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- toasted almonds (optional)
- toasted sesame seeds (optional)
Shred cabbage very thin. Toast top ramen noodles in the oven on a large baking sheet (optional). Mix with chopped cilantro, green onions, top ramen noodles, top ramen noodle seasoning, and cooked chicken. In a small bowl mix sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar and sugar. Pour over cabbage mixture. Sprinkle with sliced almonds and sesame seeds. Use high quality dark sesame oil if available.
The original recipe was from my friend Noelle On. She uses shredded meat from a rotisserie chicken, and 1/2 cup of both vegetable and sesame oil. I chose to reduce the amount of oil. Thanks Noelle for the recipe!
