You absolutely must try this amazing Asian fusion chicken salad. It is so easy to make and is the perfect combination of healthy and decadent. I use caramelized onions to make it even more flavorful.

How to Make it
- In a small saucepan, combine the canola oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar and soy sauce and heat up to a boil, stirring constantly. Turn off the heat and stir constantly for a few minutes to keep the dressing from separating. If it separates, keep on stirring. Let it cool down.

- Take the chicken out of the oven and let is rest for 5-10 minutes
- Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces.
- Heat a large pan to medium high, add the chicken and the sweet chili sauce.
- Cook the chicken on medium high - high for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Assemble the salad with the spring mix first, then tomatoes and cucumber, the chicken, pine nuts, caramelized onions, and top with the dressing.
