Applebee’s Oriental Chicken Salad (Copycat)

Step 1

Place all the dressing ingredients in a container with a lid and shake until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 2

Combine all the salad ingredients, reserving the green onions. Cover and refrigerate.

Step 3

Heat the oil to 375 degrees F.

Step 4

Whisk the eggs and buttermilk together in a medium bowl. Using another medium shallow bowl, combine the crushed cornflakes, flour and salt.

Step 5

Dip the chicken strips into the egg mixture, then dredge in the cornflake mixture, coating all sides.

Step 6

Working in batches, fry the chicken strips until deep golden brown, about 7-8 minutes. Drain on paper towels and slice.

Arrange the salad on the plates, top with some sliced chicken in the center, sprinkle with toasted almonds, chow mein noodles, green onions, and serve with the Asian dressing.
