Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
3 tbsp very finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
3 tbsp canola oil
2 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
1 tsp sriracha asian chili sauce
1 tsp kosher salt
2 (9 oz) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup minced green onion (white and green parts )
1 lb napa cabbage , halved lengthwise, very thinly sliced crosswise
2 carrots, cut into matchstick-size strips (or shredded )
3 green onions , thinly sliced on a sharp diagonal (white and green parts)
2/3 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1 tsp white sesame seeds, toasted
1 tsp black sesame seed (optional)

Directions:

Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk soy sauce, ginger, canola oil, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, sriracha and salt to blend. Transfer 3 tablespoons of the marinade to a baking dish, add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes, turning after 15 minutes.
Dressing: Whisk vinegar and green onions into the remaining marinade. Set aside.
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade, add to grill pan, and cook about 4 minutes per side or until chicken shows no sign of pink when pierced in the thickest part with the tip of a small sharp knife. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 15 minutes.
Cut chicken crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
For the Salad: In a large bowl, toss chicken, cabbage, carrots, green onions, cilantro and half of the almonds with enough dressing to coat lightly.
Mound salad in center of 4 plates. Re-whisk dressing and drizzle a little over and around salad. Sprinkle with the remaining almonds and sesame seeds.
