I love the dressing for this salad and serve it often. Change out the chicken, if desired, and customize this amazing salad to your liking.

2 cups cooked chicken
6 cups salad greens

1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp sesame seed oil
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp yellow mustard
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp garlic powder

To make the salad, cook the chicken, cool and chop it up into bitesize pieces. Add the chicken to a large mixing bowl.
