In a medium jar, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, and optional peanut butter. Secure the lid tightly, then shake the jar vigorously for about 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.

On a large serving platter or in a salad bowl, layer about 4 cups of shredded Napa cabbage and 2 cups of chopped iceberg lettuce.

Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of the prepared dressing over the layered greens, toss gently for 1 minute.

Carefully pile on 2 cups of cooked chicken, 1 cup of drained mandarin oranges, and 1 cup of shredded carrots over the greens. Scatter ½ cup of chopped green onions on top.

Just before serving, drizzle additional dressing over the top and generously sprinkle 1 cup of crunchy toppings.

Gather your family or friends and present the salad at the table. Enjoy your refreshing salad creation!
