2 tablespoons sliced almonds
4 cups loosely packed bite-size pieces romaine lettuce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
3 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts (grilled and sliced thin)

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0.
2
Cut the wonton wrappers into 1/4-inch strips.

5
To make the dressing, in a bowl, mix together all of the ingredients except the oil. Use a wire whisk to blend well and then slowly drizzle in the oil to create an emulsion.

Transfer to plates and top with the sesame seeds and almonds.
