Dr Oz Asian Chicken Salad Recipe

I love Asian food and when today Dr Oz had a segment on an Asian Chicken Salad recipe I knew that I had to set my DVR and I'm sure glad that I did!  You really don't need too many ingredients for this recipe and it's fast and easy to make!  The recipe was shared by Chris Nirschel who is a celebrity chef!  They were doing a segment on gourmet meals that you can make from canned goods.  I supposed it would be better if you used fresh chicken but I'll go with what was featured on the show.  This may come in handy on those days when you don't feel like shopping and you want to use up some of your canned goods in the cupboard!

Ingredients :

• 1 9-12 ounce can of chicken
• 1 8.5 - 11 ounce can of mandarin oranges
• 1 scallion
• 1-2 tablespoons of sesame seeds
• 1/2 tablespoon of Sriracha (warning.  Sriracha is spicy so you may want to go with less if you have a low tolerance for spice. HOWEVER, if your love spice like I do you can add a pinch or two extra ;))
• 1/4 cup of soy sauce
• 1 container of rice noodles
• 1 8 ounce can of water chestnuts
• 1 lime

Directions :

• Drain the water chestnusts, canned chicken, and mandarin oranges
• Mix (above) with rice noodles
• Mix in chopped scallions, sesame seeds, Sriracha, lime, and soy sauce.

They gave the recommendation that you don't need to season with salt because of the salt content that is already in the soy sauce.

So, what do you think?  Willing to try this recipe?  I personally loved all the ingredients involved and love Asian food so I think I'm going to give this a try.  If you have your own Asian recipes that you would love to share with us, please leave some comments below!

Pan Fried 300 Calorie Chicken Parmesan Recipe

Lisa Lillien says that her recipes are so easy that any "novice" like me can feel like a chef..  Ok, we'll see...  Instead of using bread crumbs, Lisa recommends using Fiber 1 breakfast cereal.. I've never thought of that, but it definitely sounds interesting.

• Grind the fiber one cereal into a fine powder.
• Add pinch of salt, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• Beat one quarter cup of liquid egg substitute in a separate bowl
• Dip boneless chicken breast into egg substitute (Dr. Oz asked Lisa why she wasn't using eggs..  Lisa says that you can use eggs if you would like, but she likes to keep the fat content down.
• Coat the chicken into the fiber one crumbs that you crushed already
• Place chicken into a pan that has been heated with a non stick spray instead of oil (medium high setting).  This is another way Lisa likes to save calories. Cook four minutes on each side. Make sure the chicken is well cooked.
• Spread 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce over each piece of chicken while it is still in the skillet.(if you are using jarred tomato sauce, look for one that is low in fat).
• Sprinkle with reduced fat cheese.  You only need about a 1/4 of a cup.
• Cover the skillet so the cheese will melt.
• Enjoy
