- Leftover chicken does double duty in a wink with this fast, fresh meal in a bowl. (Or pick up a barbecued chicken at the deli.)
Instructions
- Shred chicken. Peel mango. Slice mango away from stone, then slice mango and pepper into thin bite-size strips. Slice unpeeled cucumber in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon, scrape out and discard seeds. Thinly slice cucumber and onion.
- Place chicken, mango, pepper, cucumber and onion in a big bowl along with spinach. In a small bowl, whisk teriyaki with oil, vinegar, ginger and garlic. Just before serving, pour over chicken salad, then toss until coated and mixed.
