by Donna Smith

Dressing:
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons peanut butter
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon hot chile paste
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Salad:
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded
1 package wonton wrappers, cut into thin slices
1 small head romaine lettuce, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 to 2 cups shredded carrots
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
directions
Combine the salad dressing ingredients. Set aside.

Spray a large cookie sheet with non-stick spray. Place the sliced wonton wrappers on pan, then lightly spray the top with more cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees F until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Set aside.

In a large salad bowl, combine the chicken, lettuce, carrots, onions and cilantro. Toss.

When ready to serve, add the wontons and dressing. Toss again to coat.
