ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD WITH GREENS
This salad features grilled chicken; a superflavorful dressing based on soy sauce, peanut or sesame butter, and spices; and cucumber for crunch. Make extra dressing and you can serve the chicken on top of a bed of salad greens. Boneless chicken thighs are preferable to breasts, because their flavor and texture are superior, they remain moist during grilling, and they brown perfectly.

Steps:
- Start a grill or preheat the broiler. Cut the chicken meat into 1/2- to 1-inch chunks and thread it onto skewers (if you're broiling, you can forget the skewers and simply use a roasting pan). Put the skewers on a plate and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce.
- In a blender, combine the remaining soy sauce with the peanut butter, sesame oil, garlic, hot sauce, salt and pepper to taste, sugar, and vinegar. Add 1/3 cup of warm water and process until the mixture is smooth and creamy. (You can add as much as you like; garlic, vinegar, and sesame oil also can be added to taste.) Put the dressing in the refrigerator to cool.
- Grill or broil the chicken, turning once or twice. Total cooking time will be 6 to 8 minutes for breasts, 10 to 12 minutes for thighs. Meanwhile, peel the cucumber (if it is waxed), slice it in half the long way, and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Cut it into 1/2-inch dice and combine in a bowl with the dressing. When the chicken is done, let it rest and cool on a cutting board for a few minutes, then toss it with a tablespoon or two of the dressing and cucumber.
- Toss the dressing and cucumbers with the greens, top with the chicken, garnish with the cilantro, and serve.
- Add minced bell pepper (preferably red or yellow), celery, and/or zucchini to the mix.
- Garnish with fresh basil (Thai basil is especially good), mint, or minced scallion in place of or in addition to the cilantro.

- Rinse chicken and pat dry. Cut crosswise into strips about 1/8 inch thick and 2 to 3 inches long. In a bowl, mix chicken with sherry. In another small bowl, mix broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, and white pepper.
- Remove and discard any yellow, damaged, or tough leaves from 1 pound Asian greens. Trim off and discard tough stem ends. For tough stalks, remove any thick side stems attached to center stalk; discard center stalk and use stems. Rinse well.
- For bok choy: Cut leaves and stalks diagonally or crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices; separate leaves from stalks.
- For Chinese mustard or yao choy: Trim stalk ends, especially if fibrous (a white, woody center is an indication). If skin on stalks is tough, peel off and discard. Cut greens into 3-inch lengths, separating leaves and thin stems from thicker stems or stalks. If any pieces are thicker than 1/2 inch, cut to that thickness.
