"I'm posting this because it is fantastic! It can be served as a main dish, or a side salad, and it's always the first to go. It's a really pretty salad to look at. The salad part can be mixed up early and add the dressing just before you want to serve it."

I had leftover chicken tenders that were perfect for this recipe. Didn't have black sesame seeds so used regualer toasted. The dressing is excellent. This salad went over really well for dinner on a hot muggy day
