SPICY CHICKEN STRIP RECIPES RECIPES

Menu Description: "Crisp Oriental greens topped with chunks of crunchy Chicken Fingers, toasted almonds and crispy rice noodles tossed in a light Oriental vinaigrette." Applebee's 60-item menu is revised twice a year. That means about 40 percent of the entire menu changes on a regular basis. The other 60 percent are items that are found on menus in all of the Applebee's restaurants, and seldom ever change. One item that has been on the menu for some time now is this Oriental Chicken salad, which is considered one of the restaurant's signature items. The recipe makes one dinner-size salad and can be easily doubled or quadrupled for additional servings. This recipe comes from the third book, Top Secret Restaurant Recipes, but the dressing has been improved to more closely match the current dressing served at the restaurant. Want more Applebee's?

No, we’re not frying in the pot. And we’re not pressure-frying chicken. The pot’s not built for such measures. Instead, we’re using the pressure in the pot to tenderize the chicken and infuse the flavors into the meat, rendering out a little of the fat to make the thighs even crispier when they eventually hit the hot oil. After cooking under pressure, we can’t fry them in the pot with the SAUTE function on HIGH or MORE. First, we can only fit two at a time, slowing down the process. But more importantly, since we suggest pan-frying the chicken, rather than deep-frying it, the high-sided pot catches and keeps steam inside the insert, rendering the exposed skin above the oil too gummy.
