sliced green onions
12 oz. honey roasted peanuts
mandarin oranges
1/2 cup sesame seeds

DIRECTIONS:
1. Blend ingredients for dressing.
2. Marinate chicken in half the dressing for a few hours.
3. Cook pasta al dente.
4. Discard chicken marinade. Bake or Grill chicken.
5. Mix all salad ingredients together.

I cut all ingredients for the salad in half. This salad was so light, fresh, and delicious. The Teriyaki dressing was so yummy! We served the salad with a loaf of semolina bread.
