Citrus Asian Crunch Salad with Chicken (Panera Copycat) 

Panera’s ability to deliver now is one of the best things to come out of the Pandemic, along with with Drive Up Target… right?? Well the other day at school, I forgot my lunch at home and so of course Panera delivery was the way to go! I saw the Citrus Asian Crunch Salad with Chicken and it looked absolutely delicious. Low and behold it is their newest salad in January! Well I know how much you guys love Panera and HGHF Panera recipes are always on high request, that is why literally 2 weeks after having it multiple times in a row, I took to my kitchen to create an easy at home Copycat. This salad has a lot of extra things to it, and so I created a much easier version to make yourself. However, even though it is easier, it truly tastes EXACTLY like it.

So What Ingredients are in the Citrus Asian Crunch Salad with Chicken?

There are a few ingredients I chose to skip in this copy cat because it would be a lot of different things to prep. It isn’t that that is a bad thing, I just wanted to make this realistic for you all to make at home! Therefore, I included all the delicious ingredients that still makes it taste exactly like it, but easier to make!

Super Food Power Blend

The Panera recipe also includes crispy carrots. Carrots that are battered & fried. However since that is just one extra thing that would take longer, we use the carrots in vegetable blends. Vegetable blends like this one here. They sell already packaged power blends like that one, making it super easy to put together! Packed with cabbage, carrots, kale and broccoli.

Romaine

In this recipe you will use 1/2 Super Food Power Blend and 1/2 romaine lettuce. Provides the perfect crunch balance.

Avocado

The one at Panera does not include avocado, but you sure can add it! Believe me… you for sure want to add it!

The Best Tangerine Soy Ginger Dressing for Salad & Chicken Marinade

One of the things with the Panera said is that it has a teriyaki seasoned chicken as well as teriyaki drizzle. However, that would mean you are not only making a salad dressing, but also other marinades etc. That is why I created the best Tangerine Soy Ginger Dressing that tastes just like the Panera dressing. However, also is the BEST chicken marinade for this salad!

Tangerine Soy Ginger Dressing

• 3 Oranges ( 1/2 cup orange juice)
• 5 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1/2 cup light olive oil
• 1/4 cup Soy Sauce
• 1 clove garlic minced
