I have to laugh because this is Caleb and Chandler’s absolute favorite thing I make—they even order it for birthday dinners. While it really is a great salad, I just wouldn’t think that it would top all ‘guy foods’! It is definitely chick food and would make an excellent Mother’s Day dinner—but obviously it just isn’t for girls. I highly recommend it!
And hopefully this picture makes it obvious that I pirate my food pictures. . .I’m much too practical to be fancying something up like this (and I could never eat it with chopsticks). (Nor are those onions marinated and that is an absolute must with this recipe!) But it was the closest picture I could find --and it makes it look really good! 
½ head read leaf lettuce
½ head green leaf lettuce
4 chicken thighs, grilled or broiled then chopped
½ cup slivered almonds
2 TBSP sesame seeds
20 won ton wrappers
Dressing:
½ cup sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup rice vinegar
1 tsp pepper
2 tsp salt
½-1 red onion thinly sliced (put in as much as you like)
Combine ingredients for dressing. Whisk together. Marinate onions a few hours or overnight.
Cut won tons into strips of 6. Fry in oil 2-3 seconds each side. Just before serving toss everything together.
Enjoy!

How much does this make? Do you double this for your family? I think I will try it this weekend.

I don't double it. . .but it's not Cache's favorite so he doesn't eat much and I always serve it with dinner rolls and a dessert. It is the kind of salad you don't want left overs, so I don't worry about having extra. You could also stretch it by adding another piece of chicken and a little more greens--there always seems to be enough dressing left over at the bottom.
