This larb gai was easy to make and so flavorful! I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this larb gai with ground turkey instead of chicken and it turned out great! The flavors were well-balanced and the turkey was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This larb gai was a bit too sour for my taste, but it was still very good. The flavors were well-balanced and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again, but I will use less lime juice next time.
