# Sesame Chicken Salad

## Yields 2-3 servings

Have you ever had a salad from Mandy’s? Well, their Crunchy Sesame Salad with Sweet Sesame Dressing is one of their most popular menu items, and for good reason! It has everything you want in a salad, especially if you add a protein. We’ve created our own version, except instead of topping it with crispy noodles, we used our Spicy Gochu Lil Croutons.
