NEED A GREAT SALAD RECEIPE FOR POTLUCK
Chicken Salad (ge xe phay)
• 1 lb chicken breast fillet
• 8oz cabbage, roughly chopped into matchsticks
• 1 large carrot, chopped into fine matchsticks
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 large shallot, thinly sliced
• 1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
• 2 small chilies finely chopped
• 20 mint leave, roughly chopped
• 2 tablespoons roasted peanuts, to garnish (I used more and mixed them in)
For dressing:
• 2 tablespoons fish sauce
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 tablespoon rice (or white) wine
• 2 teaspoons sugar
1. Place the chicken in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover and leave for 10 minutes until just cooked through. With your fingers, shred the meat into small pieces and set aside.
2. Make the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together in a large bowl. Add the cabbage, carrots and salt and set aside.
3. Arrange the shallots, garlic, chilies and mint leaves in a bowl, and then add the vegetables and dressing, followed by the shredded chicken. Toss well.
4. Garnish with chopped peanuts to serve.
