Step-by-Step Method
Whisk the dressing
In a bowl, combine the garlic, soy sauce, juice of 2 oranges (and a little zest if using), and lime juice. Add brown sugar and whisk until fully dissolved.
Prep the salad base
Thinly slice the napa cabbage. Add bean sprouts and red onion to a large bowl and toss gently to mix.
Season the chicken
Add the cooked chicken. Pour about half the dressing over it and let it sit for 5 minutes so it soaks in a bit.
Combine and serve
Add the remaining dressing to the bowl and toss lightly. Finish with orange slices and chopped cilantro. Serve right away; if making ahead, add cilantro at the end.
