Easy Yummy Chinese Chicken Salad

Description
For poultry and vegetable lovers! This noodle-based Oriental salad starts off with real chicken, vegetables, and condiments, and is great with other side dishes, main dishes or appetizers but the color and results are worth it. Rice noodles occasionally replace the ramen noodles and work for this, too.

 * 5 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
 * 3 teaspoons soy sauce, dark or light only
 * 3 packages chicken-flavored ramen noodles or (2 packages rice noodles, cooked)

 * 1 bunch green onions, chopped
 * 12 ounces canned chicken, drained or (2 kilograms cooked chicken)
