Method

Prepare the Chicken

1

Bread the Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat with panko breadcrumbs.

2

Fry the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the chicken breasts until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and let drain on paper towels.

Prepare the Salad

Chop the Vegetables

Julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper. Place the arugula in a large salad bowl and add the julienned vegetables and peanuts.

Make the Dressing

4

Mix the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, grated ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and honey until smooth.

Assemble the Salad

5

Combine and Serve

Slice the fried chicken into strips and place on top of the salad. Drizzle with miso ginger dressing and toss gently before serving.
