Rumbi's VooDoo Chicken Salad


This is a copycat recipe from Rumbi's restaurant.  Their salads are so yummy and unusual!  I always have to eat at Rumbi's when I'm in Salt Lake or Arizona, just like Cafe Rio.  You can also make homemade caribbean jerk marinade from a recipe I will post at another time if you don't want to use the KC Masterpiece premade marinade.  This is the quick way to do it!

Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette:
3 tsp. chili garlic sauce
2 tsp. lime juice
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 tsp. fresh minced ginger
2 tsp. freshly chopped garlic
2 Tbsp. white sugar
¼ c. mayonnaise
¼ c. soy sauce
½ c. rice vinegar
¼ c. sesame oil

Blend all ingredients except sesame oil in blender.  While blender is on low speed, slowly drizzle in sesame oil until incorporated.  Set aside.

Each Salad:
4 oz. spring lettuce mix
1 Tbsp. crumbled feta cheese
1 ½ Tbsp. diced tomatoes
2 Tbsp. sesame ginger vinaigrette
            (make above recipe or use Litehouse sesame ginger dressing)
1 c. cooked jerk chicken strips (use KC Masterpiece Caribbean jerk marinade)
2 Tbsp. tortilla strips
4 Tbsp. Jamaican jerk sauce (KC Masterpiece Caribbean Jerk marinade)
Sprinkle of sesame seeds

For each salad, place lettuce mix, feta, tomatoes, vinaigrette and chicken strips in a cold bowl.  Toss to combine, making sure not to crush lettuce leaves.  Place tortilla strips on top.  Drizzle with jerk sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.  Makes 1 serving.
