Add the chicken, a couple pieces at a time, seal the bag and give it a good shimmy-shake to coat the chicken. Place the coated chicken on a baking sheet and repeat with remaining chicken until all the pieces are coated. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until cooked through.





Into a container with a lid, add the scallions, garlic, vinegar and duck sauce. Place the lid on tight, and give it a good shimmy to mix it up. In a salad bowl, add the tomatoes, red pepper, red onion and romaine, and pour dressing over the salad
