In a large salad bowl, combine mixed greens, shredded carrots, shredded red cabbage, dried cranberries, sliced almonds or chopped peanuts, and green onions.
Add your cooked chicken to the salad bowl and gently toss everything to ensure even distribution.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey or maple syrup, grated ginger, and minced garlic until fully blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the dressing over your salad ingredients and toss gently to ensure even coating.
Serve your salad immediately for maximum freshness, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
