1 cup teriyaki marinade

4 chicken breast fillets

Fat-Free Asian Dressing

2 cups water

1/2 cup granulated sugar

3 tablespoons dry pectin

1 tablespoon white vinegar

1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon paprika

8 cups chopped romaine lettuce

8 cups chopped iceberg lettuce

3 cups shredded red cabbage

3 cups shredded green cabbage

2 cups shredded carrots

1 cup chopped green onion

1 1/3 cups crispy chow mein noodles

1. Combine teriyaki marinade and chicken breasts in a medium

bowl or resealable plastic bag. Marinate chicken for 3-4 hours.

2. Prepare the dressing by combining all of the ingredients

in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring mixture to a

rolling boil while stirring often with a whisk, then remove

the pan from the heat to cool. When dressing has cooled, pour

it into a covered container and chill.

3. When chicken breasts have marinated, preheat barbecue grill

to high heat. Grill chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, or until

done.

4. Combine the romaine and iceberg lettuce, red and green cabbage

and 1 cup of shredded carrots in a large bowl with the dressing.

Toss well.

5. Divide the tossed greens among four plates. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of

green onions over each salad, followed by 1/3 cup of crispy chow

mein noodles.

6. When the chicken breasts are done, slice each one, widthwise,

into bite-size pieces. Sprinkle the sliced chicken breasts over

each salad.

7. Place a 1/4 cup pile of shredded carrots in the center of

each salad.
