Made with leftover rotisserie hen, romaine, napa, crispy wonton strips and the perfect sesame ginger dressing ever!
At any time when I’ve a little bit of rotisserie hen leftover from this, I repurpose the leftovers to make my favourite Chinese language hen salad. A restaurant-quality salad that truly tastes so significantly better proper at residence.
