Thai Chicken Salad

This is yet another of the Sandi Richard recipes. (I'm nearly done the book, actually. I mean, not the entire thing, but every single recipe in it that I'm willing to cook.) She seems to have a bit of a thing about making healthier versions of often unhealthy meals, which is common with diet books (see, for example, any of the books by the Eat, Shrink and Be Merry authors).

In some of the cases, her results look a bit disastrous -- her butter chicken looks completely disgusting and the ingredients list doesn't really resemble ANY recipe I've ever seen for butter chicken -- but this one is really very good. I wanted to eat it all, even though it was way more food than I really wanted or needed to eat.
