From the Test Kitchen

The star of this dish is the irresistibly savory-sweet dressing (made with soy sauce, lime juice, honey, and more) that brings together crisp vegetables and juicy orange. We’re topping it with bites of tender chicken cooked with nutty sesame oil and soy sauce, which lends a final touch of umami (or savory) flavor to the dish.
