"This is one of those sublime classics with all the bells and whistles without the fuss. The crunchy walnuts add richness to the lean, tasty chicken breasts, and the crispy lettuce and fresh mint absorb the hoisin sauce and vinegar. This salad is great for lunch or as a main course at dinnertime...."
