- .RZ "CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD" "Chicken salad with Chinese seasonings"
- This is a delicious salad my mother has been making for years. She found the
- recipe in the cookbook that came with her wok. If you leave out the fried
- bean threads, this is a reasonbly low-calorie dish. And if you use all
- vegetable oils, there's almost no cholesterol in it (except for what's in
- the chicken).
