Wonton Chicken Salad



submitted by Chris
4+ stars

2 heads of romaine and 1 bunch of spinach (or whatever greens your family likes best) or one bag of greens and one bag of spinach
3-4 chicken breasts, grilled and cubed (you can marinate these in a little soy sauce and pepper for an Asian flavor)
2 large cans mandarin oranges, drained
3 avocados, cubed
1/2 bunch of green onions, diced thin
toasted slivered almonds and sunflower kernels (I put a handful of each in a frying pan with a pat of butter until browned)
1/2 package of won ton wrappers, fried in vegetable oil (find these at Wal-mart by the bag salads)

Dressing
(I usually use only 2/3-3/4 of the dressing on the salad-I think all of it is too much.)

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1/2 teaspoon accent (optional)
1/2 teaspoon paprika

Blend the dressing in a food processor or blender for best results. I used my immersion blender.

Combine all and serve.
