Oriental Chicken Salad

From: North Shore 1st Ward Relief Society

I first had this salad at a Relief Society supper. The weather is warming up here in CA and we have enjoyed this 2 nights in a row now - outside on the back patio as the sun was setting. Makes a great main dish salad in the summer!

4 chicken breasts, poached or grilled, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
2 tablespoons almonds, toasted
½ head cabbage, shredded
2 green onions, sliced
One 3 oz. package chicken ramen noodles, broken up (not cooked)

Dressing:
2 tablespoons sugar
½ cup canola oil (or less to taste)
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoon cider vinegar
Ramen flavor packet to taste

Preheat oven to 350°. Toast the sesame seeds and almonds together on a cookie sheet for 3-4 minutes. Watch closely so that they do not burn. Toss all other remaining ingredients with the salad dressing and serve.
