Sparky's Oriental Chicken Salad



This recipe was born of a collaboration between three cooks who worked at the Roche Harbor Resort, During the mid-1980s. They were trying to create not only the most perfect Oriental Salad, but also award-winning potato salad and other fine dishes that would win the the finely tuned palates of the San Juan Island's exclusive visitors. It is the first time that this recipe has ever been made public, but is has been on the menu throughout many of the restaurants and bistros throughout the San Juan Islands. Thanks to Bret for the pick of the finest sesame oil, and thanks Chef Rikk for the guidence.

Ingredients:
2-4 Chicken Breasts
1/2 head of Romaine lettuce
1 clove of garlic
Dash of lemon pepper

The dressing:

1/4 cup of salad oil made from sunflower seed, or olive oil also works.

1 oz bottle of dark sesame oil. We prefer Kadoya or any of the flavorful dark sesame oils that come from Japan. Clear sesame oil will not work!

1/2 tablespoon of Kokkoman regular soy sauce
One half of a fresh squeezed lemon juice.

1 tablespoon of brown or golden honey.

1/2 tablespoon of peanut oil.
