Very refreshing and easy to prepare. I used a whole tablespoon of sesame oil, since I love that flavor, and I mixed the chicken, baby corn, radishes and onions with the dressing and let it marinate awhile before serving it on the greens. This is on my Summer salad list.

Seconds for my 5, 6, and 8 year old. A winner. I substituted half a small onion for scallions, added matchstick cut carrots & only used one third cup OJ.
