Panera Bread is starting 2020 off on a fresh note by updating the recipe for its popular Spicy Thai Salad with Chicken. Bursting with flavorful and healthy ingredients, the new and improved salad is a great option for anyone with the new year's resolution to eat better.
The new recipe for Panera's Spicy Thai Salad with Chicken starts with chicken that's been raised without antibiotics. The chicken is then combined with romaine, almonds, red pepper, carrots, fire-roasted edamame, cilantro, and crunchy wonton strips. The whole thing is then tossed in a spicy Thai chili vinaigrette and drizzled with a flavorful peanut sauce.
The new and improved Spicy Thai Salad with Chicken is available from participating Panera locations nationwide.
