Vietnamese Rice Vermicelli Salad ~ 越南米粉沙拉


A refreshing salad for a hot day ~ consisting of  a stir-fry chicken from the pan,  paired with freshly blanched rice vermicelli, julienned carrots, lettuce and topped with roasted peanuts.  Rounded up with a lime and chilli dipping sauce.  This makes a satisfying main-course salad or even a wholesome meal on its own, fuss-free!
