Submitted by Nicole L
1 pkg. Wontons (found in refrigerated produce section)
1 c. sugared almonds
1 head romaine lettuce shredded
1 c. craisins
1 small red onion chopped fine
1 Large Can Chunk Chicken --I like Costco Brand (or you can boil and shred your own)

Sauce to soak chicken in:
1/2 c. water
1/8 c. sugar
1/4 c. soy sauce
Sprinkle of ginger

Dressing
½ tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. sugar
½ tsp pepper
½ c. oil
3 Tbsp. vinegar
1 Oriental Seasoning packet from Oriental Flavored Top Ramen

To sugar almonds, place ¼ c. sugar in a skillet, place almonds in skillet, heat on medium and mix constantly until sugar has melted and coated almonds. Cool.
Fry wontons in a pan of oil—watch carefully they burn quickly.
Soak chicken breast in sauce and set aside. Prepare dressing and set aside. In a large bowl place shredded lettuce, chicken, craisins, onion, and sugared almonds. Just before serving throw in wontons, pour dressing over salad. Toss and coat.
