(pos1)	n
(english1)	Coriander, cilantro, dhania, Chinese parsley, Coriandrum sativum
(crossref)	コリアンダー
(reference)	Found it in a recipe. Searching on 香菜 in Japanese wikipedia redirects you to コリアンダー. My denshi jisho also specifies コエンドロ as coriander. シャンツァイ is the Chinese pronounciation but it seems like it's used to some extent. 
The different English translations I got from Wikipedia.

(comment)	I've only ever seen it used as a na-adjective, but I'm assuming that doesn't preclude other possible uses. チックな has the same feeling as ような or みたいな.
