Here's a quick easy meal. My mom made it when I was growing up, but I added veggies and lightened the sweet-and-sour dressing. I also bake the crispy wontons instead of frying them. —Kylea Rorabaugh of Kansas City, Missouri Ingredients:
10 wonton wrappers, cut into 1/4-inch strips |
1/4 cup cider vinegar |
3 tablespoons canola oil |
3/4 teaspoon sesame oil |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
5 cups torn romaine |
3 cups cubed cooked chicken breast |
1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into 1/4-inch strips |
1 medium sweet yellow pepper, cut into 1/4-inch strips |
1/2 cup halved grape tomatoes |
Directions:
1. Lightly spritz both sides of wonton strips with cooking spray; place on a baking sheet. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Turn strips over; broil 2-3 minutes longer or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
2. For dressing, in a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, canola oil, sesame oil, sugar, salt and pepper; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the romaine, chicken, peppers and tomatoes. Just before serving, drizzle with dressing and toss to coat. Top with wonton strips. Yield: 10 servings.
