Cook noodles according to package directions and drain well. In a large bowl, toss noodles with sesame oil.

In a small bowl, whisk dressing ingredients together and set aside.

Add all ingredients except cilantro, nuts and lemon. Add dressing and toss well to distribute. Top with cilantro, nuts and squeezes of lemon juice.

Tips:

• Squeeze a little lemon juice on the apple after slicing to prevent discoloration and add a little zing.
• Brush some of the prepared teriyaki sauce on the chicken at the last few minutes of grilling to give it a nice gloss and intensify the flavor.
