Time 13m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon | 15 ml lime juice
2 tablespoons |28 g light brown sugar
2 tablespoons | 30 ml fish sauce
2 tablespoons | 30 ml rice vinegar
1 red birds eye chili, deseeded and diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cooked boneless, skinless chicken breasts, shredded or diced
4 ounces thin rice noodles
1/2 large cucumber
1 large carrot, thinly sliced or grated
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, sliced
1/4 cup salted peanuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Start by mixing all of the nuoc cham dressing ingredients together in a small cup or bowl until combined. Set aside.
  • Place the rice noodles in a large pot and cover with boiling water. Let the noodles sit in the hot water three minutes, then drain and rinse the noodles with cold water. If you don't own a tea kettle, add 3-4 cups water to your pot and bring to a boil on the stove top first before adding the noodles.
  • Once cooked and rinsed, add the noodles to a large salad bowl and set aside as you prep the remaining ingredients.
  • Take the cucumber and cut in in half lengthwise. Use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds in the middle, then use a vegetable peeler to peel the cucumber in to ribbons. Thinly slice or grate the carrot and slice the fresh herbs.
  • Add the cucumber, carrot, herbs, shredded chicken and peanuts to the rice noodles. Pour the dressing over the top then toss well to mix the salad until everything is well covered in dressing.
  • Add more peanuts and fresh herbs if desired and enjoy.

A perfect salad for leftover BBQ, boiled, broiled or baked chicken. A very crunchy salad with a tasty sweet Asian-style dressing. The kids love it too!

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 (8 ounce) package dried rice noodles
1 head iceberg lettuce - rinsed, dried, and chopped
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.
  • To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.
  • In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.

The best thing about this salad is how it comes together in no time at all. Asian rice noodles generally cook more quickly than wheat noodles and with the addition of the precut coleslaw mix the prep time is very minimal.
