For the Creamy Ginger Sesame Dressing:

3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 1/2 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar

For the salad:

4 cups napa cabbage, shredded

3 cups cooked chicken, shredded

Instructies

Make the peanuts:

Preheat the oven to 350.

To a small bowl, add the peanuts, avocado oil, sriracha, honey, and salt and toss to combine.

Add the peanuts to a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before tossing (the peanuts will harden as they cool).

Make the dressing:

In a small blender or food processor, add all of the dressing ingredients and blend until smooth. Set aside.

Assemble the salad:

To a large serving bowl, add the two cabbages, shredded chicken, carrots, edamame, green onion, cilantro, and cooled roasted peanuts. Gently toss with the dressing and then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Enjoy!
