Orange Ginger Asian Chopped Salad This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy . A splash of citrus and a kick of ginger add zest to this Orange Ginger Asian chopped salad. Chopped Salad is one of my favorite things to make for lunch. I love using up things in my crisper drawer, adding protein and having a really simple, yummy lunch. My husband has been on an Asian kick lately and loves any kind of Asian flavored chopped salad. When I saw the new Orange Ginger marinade and sauce from Soy Vay, I was excited to incorporate it into a salad. One great thing about the Orange Ginger Soy Vay Marinade is that it doubles as a sauce. I marinated my chicken in a bowl for about 2 hours in the morning. Before I put it in the oven, I poured the excess marinade over the chicken. While it cooked the marinade thickened into a really nice consistency. I set it aside and tossed the chicken in the sauce after I chopped it. It really gave the chicken an even stronger flavor. I think next time I won’t even marinate the chicken as long. If you’ve never made a chopped salad before, here are a few tips. Make sure you chop everything into similar sizes. You want things to be small and bite size. The trick is a really big, really sharp knife – like a mezzaluna. I also like to go easy on the lettuce. When I use lots of other ingredients, they give the salad a crunch and texture and a little more flavor than lettuce alone. If you do like your leafy greens, don’t stick to one variety. Use romaine and arugula or for something crunchy try iceberg and kale. Just mix it up! Now you’re ready to try my Orange Ginger Asian Chopped Salad!
