Step 1

Using a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, honey, hoisin, sweet red chili sauce, gochujang, avocado oil and 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil. Taste and adjust any ingredients as needed. Set aside.

Step 2

If you want to keep the salad fresh, simply toss together the carrots, scallions, shredded cabbage and mixed greens in a large mixing bowl. Add the shredded rotisserie chicken, oranges, cilantro (if using) and the almonds and toss together again. Drizzle the dressing on top, toss and serve!

Step 3

For the slightly warm Chinese Chicken Salad: Using a large skillet, heat the remaining sesame oil over medium heat. After a minute or so, add in the shredded rotisserie chicken, carrots and half of the scallions. Mix until heated through and add in the shredded green cabbage and red cabbage and drizzle in half of the dressing and mix again until everything is well coated with the dressing. Sauté for about 3 minutes and remove from the heat and into a large serving dish or bowl.

Step 4

Add in the fresh greens and toss together, drizzling with a bit more dressing if desired. Serve and garnish with orange slices, fresh cilantro, sliced almonds and the remaining dressing. Enjoy!
