From my best friend’s mom, Jo, who made this for her bridal shower.

- Dressing:
- 4 T. sugar

directions
- 1
Cook chicken in water with sliced ginger until done-about 20-30 min. Fry rice sticks in hot oil (375°) in small batches. Drain on paper towels (You can cook soaked rice sticks in chicken broth for about 2 min, then drain).

Shred chicken. For dressing, mix all ingredients EXCEPT oil in a saucepan. Heat over low until dissolved. Cool and add oil just when ready to serve salad. Toss dressing with salad ingredients.
