For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the cooked chicken in a little sesame oil and soy sauce before adding it to the salad. To toast sesame seeds, spread them in a dry skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and fragrant (about 3-5 minutes). If you prefer a less sweet dressing, reduce the amount of sugar to your liking. Feel free to substitute other nuts for the walnuts, such as almonds or pecans. For a vegetarian option, replace the chicken with firm tofu, pressed and cubed.
