Thai Chicken Salad w/ Spicy Peanut Ginger Sauce 🥢🥗

I recently had this thai chicken salad while out with the fam the other day and my life was forever changed so I knew I needed to make a version to share with all of you! This is honestly so easy to meal prep and comes together in less than 30 minutes. I actually prepped this for myself this week and it was in fact such a great gift to give to my future self haha

heres what you need:

for the peanut ginger sauce:

-3 tbsp creamy peanut butter

-3 tbsp coconut aminos

-1 tbsp maple syrup

-1 tbsp rice vinegar

-2 tbsp lemon juice

-3 garlic cloves, crushed

-1 tsp ginger, finely grated

-1/4 tsp salt

-1 tsp chili flakes

for the salad:

-greens mix (I used an iceberg lettuce mix)

-a few handfuls of purple cabbage

-shredded carrots

-1 cup shelled edamame (I bought mine frozen and boiled it in water for 10 minutes!)

-1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa

-1/3 cup cilantro, chopped

-1/3 cup green onion, chopped

-1 rotisserie chicken, sliced into strips

-sesame seeds (for topping)

directions:

prepare the dressing by adding all of the ingredients to a bowl and whisking until smooth. Add all of the salad ingredients (minus the chicken and sesame seeds) to a large mixing bowl and mix until everything is well combined. Transfer amongst 4-5 takeaway containers and place the chicken and sesame seeds on top of each. Add a little container for the dressing in each salad and there you have it! 😋
