Spicy Mexican Chicken Salad Recipe

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

1 medium onion, peeled and sliced

1 medium head cabbage, chopped

1/2 pound carrots, chopped

1 celery stalk, torn

2 cups oil for frying

1 (16 ounce) can diced green chile peppers, drained

2 cups water

2 tablespoons jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped

1 (5 ounce) can mixed green chile peppers, drained

1 (2.25 ounce) can harissa, divided (or to taste)

2 tablespoons dried minced onion

1 tablespoon dried parsley

Directions

In a large bowl, whisk together chicken, vegetables and green chile peppers.

Place carrots and celery in another large bowl.

Add half of the oil; mix together and drizzle over chicken mixture. Add water, green chiles, chile peppers and harissa.

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken, turning chicken once, until golden brown and evenly brown on both sides. Transfer to a platter.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan over medium heat, add 1/2 cup water. Mix together with 2 tablespoons lemon-lime-lime soda and 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile peppers. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until peppers are tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer chicken mixture to a serving dish and sprinkle with parsley and chili powder. Heat mixture, stirring occasionally, to a deep-fry temperature of about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
