    Title: Crispy Wonton Chicken Salad
    Categories: Poultry, Pastry, Vegetables, Chilies, Herbs
    Yield: 3 servings

    MMMMM--------------------------DRESSING-------------------------------
    3 tb Rice vinegar
    3 tb Toasted sesame oil
    2 tb Peach or apricot preserves
    2 tb Mayonnaise
    1 tb Soy sauce
    1 ts Chilli spice mix
    1/2 ts Onion powder
    Salt

    MMMMM---------------------------SALAD--------------------------------
    8 oz Cooked chicken meat; in
    - bite-size pieces
    8 Wonton wrappers
    Oil; for frying
    Salt
    2 Romaine hearts; coarse
    - chopped
    4 Scallions; coarse chopped
    1 c (packed) coarse chopped
    - fresh cilantro leaves
    - w/tender stems
    1 c (packed) coarse chopped
    - fresh mint leaves

    Make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the
    vinegar, sesame oil, peach preserves, mayonnaise, soy
    sauce, chili powder and onion powder, and season to
    taste with salt.

    Prepare the salad: Add the chicken to the dressing and
    toss.

    To fry the wonton wrappers, cut the squares into ½-inch
    strips, then cut those strips in half crosswise to
    shorten them. In a medium saucepan, heat an inch of oil
    over medium to 350 degrees, or until a wonton strip
    immediately bubbles when added. Carefully add the wonton
    strips to the hot oil and, stirring constantly with a
    slotted spoon, fry until puffy and golden, 30 seconds to
    2 minutes. Transfer the crispy wontons to a paper
    towel-lined plate and season with salt.

    Assemble the salad: Add the chopped romaine, scallions,
    cilantro, mint and half of the fried wontons to the bowl
    with the dressed chicken, and toss to combine. Season
    with salt as needed. Top with the remaining fried
    wontons and serve immediately.
