Main Ingredients

Miso Ginger Dressing

Preparation

Preparing the Chicken

1. Bread the Chicken

Start by setting up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip into the egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.

2. Fry the Chicken

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Preparing the Salad

1. Prepare the Vegetables

Julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper. Set aside.

2. Assemble the Salad

In a large bowl, combine arugula with the julienned vegetables. Slice the fried chicken into strips and add on top.

Making the Dressing

1. Mix the Dressing

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

Finishing Touches

1. Serve

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
