36 Reviews of Applebee's Oriental Dressing

From: Lindsey C.

On Mar 1, 2006

Yummy! I will definitely be making this again. I used light mayo, a little mustard powder instead of Dijon and no sesame oil. I served the dressing over a bed of field greens and spinach sprinkled with mandarin oranges, rice noodles and slivered almonds. Delish! Next time I will try making it with fat free mayonnaise, to try to cut down on the calories even more.

    Excellent, it was good on a spinach salad with chicken and it was also an excellent dip for chicken fingers.

    I made some adjustments (didn't have sesame oil, used light olive oil instead) and this still turned out to be excellent. Great flavour! I poured it over a mandarin chicken almond salad and it was great.

    This salad dressing is delicious! It's great as a dip for raw veggies and I love it on spinach salad. Thanks for posting this recipe Miller!!

    Very close flavor to Applebee's. I think Applebee's has a thicker consistency, though. TIP: Let me share a secret of mine.... For those of you who don't have rice wine vinegar, you can use regular white vinegar-- after diluting it. For every 2 tbsp of white vinegar, add 1 tsp of water. Since this recipe just calls for 1 1/2 tbsp of rice wine vinegar, just discard the extra.

    yummm-eeee I thought the sesame flavour was a bit lite and so ended up adding a half teaspoon of sesame oil and used fat free mayo and dijon - actually tasted authentic to the applebees version to the point that my very fussy "we'll only eat applebees version" kids even love it!!. when i ran out of honey, I substituted 3 teaspoons of splenda powder and it was just as good as with honey....
