- 1 medium carrot, shredded (about 3/4 cup)
- 3 cups shredded Brussel Sprouts
- 2 cups shredded kale leaves, thick stems removed (about 2 cups)
- 2 cups shredded white-meat Rotisserie chicken
For the Dressing
- 1/4 cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce or Tamari
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha hot sauce (optional)
- 1 tablespoon light Agave nectar
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh grated ginger root
Makes 8
Directions
- Using a food processor with the shredding blade, shred broccoli stalks, carrot, brussel sprouts and kale leaves. Alternately, you can use a box grater or buy them already shredded.
- In a large salad bowl combine all shredded vegetables and shredded chicken and toss to combine.
- In a mixing bowl whisk all dressing ingredients until well incorporated.
- Plate 1 1/2 cups of salad per plate and lightly dress with 1 tablespoon of dressing.
Note: Store leftover salad and dressing separately until ready to serve. Extra dressing can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tip: Grill up some chicken breasts ahead for this recipe or shred some plain rotisserie chicken as a time saver. Avoid rotisserie chicken that has an overpowering flavor added, such as Cajun or one that has added sugar.
