Orange sesame chicken salad

Do you have a meal you could eat over and over?  This orange sesame chicken salad is it for me.  Odd I know!  Given that I’m all about the cake and chocolate I find it strange that lettuce on a plate would ever make an appearance on my all time favorite list.  The lettuce is really just a vehicle for the noodles and sauce though.

With only four ingredients, I don’t think this sauce could get any easier or any tastier!  When that sesame oil hits the heat it smells soooo good!
