Asian Chicken Salad
We're crazy in love with our Cascade Mushroom Mix, featured in this Asian chicken salad with just the right embellishments. We put the mushroom mix in the marinade, where the umami flavor magic made the meat meatier. For this Asian chicken salad, we added carrots, cashews, and bok choy for crunch and added flavor. Adding toasted sesame seeds for the garnish adds a delightful flair.
