Asian Kale Salad
When I saw this easy Asian kale salad recipe on Sunset, I knew it would pair nicely with the homemade potstickers and fried rice I made for dinner. I threw it together, let the dressing flavor, and wilt the kale a bit before serving. It was full of flavor, so healthy, and very delicious! I love finding new side dishes that pair well with Asian food and this is a good one!

What a beautiful and healthy salad. I love the dressing too. xo Catherine
I love that sweet chilli dressing and kale happens to be one of my all time favourites. A must make for me! Thanks for sharing, Pam.
This salad is inspired! Love the flavors you’ve added to this. This really would be perfect in a meal that included potstickers! Really nice — thanks.
This looks delicious! Must try.
I find raw kale to feel a little sharp at the edges, so I always cook it. But your dressing would work well with spinach, too!
Looks good.
This is my kind of salad for sure 🙂
i’m still resisting the kale craze, but i love the asian flavors in this!
I love the flavors in this salad!
Yay for kale salads! Love this Asian kick.
Great salad and super-quick to put it together! I used baby kale instead of “grown up” kale” but still gave it a rough chop. Really nice light dressing that still carried the Asian flavors really well. Tasted great with a grilled flank steak and roasted sweet potatoes.
