Mango: If you are intimidated by cutting mangos – don’t be, just check out my How to Cut A Mango Post that teaches everything you could ever want to know about mangos! pineapple: take care your pineapple is ripe so it’s sweet.You can also swap the Romaine for spinach or for half iceberg lettuce. romaine lettuce: remove the outer leaves so you’re left with crunchy lettuce.seasonings: garlic powder, onion powder, ginger powder, pepper, cayenne pepper.You may substitute granulated sugar if that’s all you have on hand. flour: I use all-purpose flour but I’m sure almond flour, etc.Please do NOT substitute with traditional breadcrumbs and expect the same results. Panko breadcrumbs are lighter, larger and dryer than normal breadcrumbs so they absorb less moisture which produces a way crispier breading. panko: are a Japanese breadcrumb and can be found next to the traditional/Italian breadcrumbs at your grocery store.Sweetened shredded coconut adds sweetness and balances out the rich cashews and robust seasoning. coconut: you will want to use sweetened shredded coconut flakes and NOT unsweetened coconut flakes.I like to get my cashews at the bulk bins at Sprouts. cashews: use toasted, unsalted cashews.The Cashew Chicken is similar to breading other chicken, with the addition of coconut and cashews. If you only have chicken breasts at home, you can still use them to make this Cashew Chicken Salad, but you’ll want to pound them to an even thickness first (about 1/2″) and if they are extra thick, you’ll want to slice them through the equator first. Their thinner size also creates the perfect proportions of juicy chicken verses crunchy breading. I recommend chicken tenderloins for the Cashew Chickenbecause they emerge extremely tender on the inside and crunchy on the outside. It is wonderful crunchy and flavorful from not just cashews but COCONUT as well! The Cashew Chicken is the star of this Cashew Chicken Salad. Make it while its still summer in September so you won’t have to wait for a whole year to go by! If you don’t want to make the whole salad, make this dressing!īut really, you should also make this Cashew Chicken Salad of sweet fruit, crunchy vegetables, crispy chicken and heavenly vinaigrette. This dressing should have its very own post. It’s sweet and tangy with a little attitude. It’s comprised of fresh pineapple, fresh ginger, garlic, honey, apple cider vinegar, oil and paprika – truly a dressing to live for. This dressing is almost too delicious to handle. The Cashew Chicken Salad then gets drizzled in the most intoxicating Pineapple Ginger Vinaigrette. To transform the cashew chicken into Cashew Chicken Salad, it lays on a throne of lettuce, pineapple, mangos, cucumbers, lettuce, green onion and red bell peppers – AKA crunchy, juicy, sweet, tangy all in one bite. The perfect blend of sweet and spicy, crunchy outside, tender inside and delicious all over! Juicy chicken is crusted in cashews, coconut and panko spiced with ginger, cayenne, garlic and onion and sweetened with the coconut and brown sugar. This sensational salad is inspired by my Baked Cashew Coconut Chicken Tenders.

I hope you still feel like tasting summer just a little bit longer, because if there ever was summer on a plate, this Cashew Chicken Salad is it. PIN THIS RECIPE TO SAVE FOR LATER Cashew Chicken Salad Recipe
