Method:
- Prepare the sauce: In a bowl, combine peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and coconut milk. Add the mixture to your blender and blitz until well-combined.
- Prepare the tofu/chicken: If using tofu, press it to remove excess water, then cut into cubes. Drizzle with ⅓ of the satay sauce, and air fry the tofu. Alternatively, prepare cooked chicken if preferred.
- Prepare the salad: In a large bowl, combine shredded red cabbage, shredded romaine lettuce, grated or julienned carrots, chopped lettuce, sliced peppers, sliced salad onions, pickled red onion, and chopped fresh coriander. Drain the Shirataki Noodles and add them to the bowl. Add the tofu or cooked chicken to the salad. Drizzle the satay sauce over the salad and toss until everything is well-coated.
