Method
In a small mixing bowl whisk together honey, rice wine vinegar, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, and sesame
oil. Set in the fridge until ready to use.
In a medium skillet heat oil on medium heat. Prepare the chicken by pounding to about ½ inch thick.
This helps them to cook faster and more even. In a shallow dish whisk egg and milk together. In another
shallow, disk combine crushed corn flakes and flour.
Soak the chicken in the egg/milk mixture and then coat well in the cornflakes. Place the coated chicken
in the hot oil and cook on each side until the chicken is no longer pink.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the salad by chopping the lettuce, and cabbages. In a large bowl,
toss with grated carrots, chow mien noodles, and roasted cashew. Cut the chicken into bite-sized chunks
forming a pile in the middle.
Serve with dressing.
