Yield: 4
Ingredients:
----------------- MARINADE ----------------
1 cup Prepared Italian salad dressing
2 tsp Low sodium soy sauce
1 tsp Minced fresh ginger root
(or 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger)
----------------- CHICKEN SALAD ----------------
4 x Boneless skinless chicken breast halves

Method:
For Marinade: In zip-top plastic bag, combine salad dressing, soy sauce,

Refrigerate 30 minutes.
For Salad: Arrange greens on serving plates. Sprinkle with cilantro. Top

In small saucepan, bring remaining marinade to a boil (this can be done
on the grill, if desired). Add almonds and sesame seeds. Pour over
salads and serve immediately.
