小贴士 Tips
Whenever there’s leftover chicken, no matter which part, I’ll keep it in the fridge and turn it into this refreshing salad the next day, giving the leftover chicken a whole new life at the table! It’s citrusy from the lemon, herby from the coriander and the kicks from the pepper! I guess you can already imagine on how does it taste right?

Lemon Coriander Chicken Salad
Why would you love this salad?
This salad is quite different from typical Western-style salads, the dressing contains no oil, but instead, highlighting the citrusy notes of lemon and herby taste from coriander. Some of the vegetables and chicken are stir-fried, making the salad more comforting and warm to eat. The added spiciness brings extra layers of flavor, giving it a touch of Vietnamese-style flair. Best of all, it’s a wonderful way to clear out your fridge!

All you need
For stir-frying:
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- A bowl of Chicken
- 1/4 no Onion, thick slices
- 1 cloves of Minced garlic
- Carrot as needed
- Cabbage as needed
- A pinch of Salt
Dressing:
- 1 stalk of Coriander
- 2 cloves of Minced garlic
- 1 pc of Chilli padi
- 1/2tsp Crushed black pepper
- 1 no Lemon zest
- 1/2-1 no of Lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Fish sauce
- 1tsp Soy sauce
- 1-2 tsp Sugar
To served:
- Raw onion slices (thinly sliced)
- Coriander
- Chicken
- Stir-fried veges
- Dressing
Ingredients Notes
Coriander ——
I know some of you can’t eat coriander, saying that it tastes like soap (and I was melting during my first time hear of this description XD). And If you’re one of them, coriander can be easily substituted with other fresh herbs, such as :
- Basil leaves or Lemon basil
- Celery leaves
- Spring onions
- Shiso leaves or perilla
- Dill
- Peppermint or spearmint
- Lemon balm etc…

Steps of making
- Mix all the ingredients listed under the part for dressing together, (if you’re on a rush, can slightly press them with a fork if you want them to release their flavor quicker) and set aside.
- Shred the leftover chicken into strips, or if you’re using a freshly cooked one.
- In a cold pan, add sesame oil and onions that is sliced in to thicker slices.
- Cook over medium-low heat until the onions turn slightly translucent and soft. Do not rush, because sesame oil has low smoking point.
- Add minced garlic, stir-fry briefly until you smell the slight garlicky aroma.
- Add the shredded chicken. If its too dry, splash in a little water to keep it juicy.
- Stir-fry until the chicken is heated through, add some seasoning to the chicken if it is very bland, like salt and pepper, then remove from the pan.
- In the same pan, add carrots and cabbages with a good pinch of salt.
- Stir-fry until the vegetables release water and softened slightly, then remove and combine with the chicken.
- Add the dressing made earlier, raw onion slices, and coriander.
- Toss everything together until well mixed.
- Plate it up and enjoy your warm but super refreshing, flavor-packed salad!
