Recipe note<p>Chinese-style chicken salad was popular in the 1970's and is made with familiar shredded chicken, iceberg lettuce, crispy fried noodles, and a sweet, sesame rice vinegar dressing. The Chinese in Asia typically do not eat raw-leaf lettuce salads and this salad was probably invented in California as a fusion of Oriental and Western ingredients and flavours.</p>
