 The day before, either prepare the chicken broth using
 a standard recipe or use canned chicken broth for
 convenience. Slowly simmer the chicken broth until the
 meat is cooked through. Place the chicken out
 overnight to dry. The next day, deep fry it in peanut
 oil and then separate the meat from the bones. With
 your hands, tear the meat into long narrow strips. Cut
 the green onions, carrots, ginger, and pickles into
 long strips. Combine the green onions, lettuce,
 carrots, scallions, red ginger, pickles, peanuts,
 coconut, and sesame seed. Mix well. Add the chicken.
 Starting with the sugar, mix the rest of the
 ingredients with the exception of the parsley and won
 ton until thoroughly combined. Just before serving,
 add the parsley and won ton pastry and toss lightly.
