Directions:Butterfly chicken in half and marinate chicken for 30 minutes in soy sauce. While marinating chicken, julienne the carrots and cucumber (into match stick shape) and thinly slice lettuce. Cook chicken (BBQ chicken for best results)
While chicken is on the BBQ, make peanut sauce - Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan over low heat. If needed add pinch of crushed chilli flakes and 1 tsp of sugar. If too thick, add more water
You can also make the vermicelli noodles by boiling a pot of water and adding the noodle to the boiling pot for 1 minute and drain water. When meat is done, take the 4 pieces of chicken off the BBQ and cut into strips
Make the salad rolls first because they need to dry off. For each salad roll - Layer two sheets on top of each other and place on plate (two sheets makes for a thicker shell). Run water hot from tap over wrap on plate. It should get really soft quickly.
Dump water and carefully lift wraps onto dry surface. They shouldn't break, but they will easily fold and stick. With your hands, break off a small handful of vermicelli and place near edge of wrap
Add a a couple match sticks of carrots and cucumber and sprouts (or snow peas). For added flavour, add two pieces of cooked shrimp). Wrap carefully by making one half roll over, fold sides in and roll the rest of the way. Let sit to dry
To make vermicelli bowl, layer the ingredients - Lettuce on bottom, Noodles on top of lettuce, Add carrots, cucumber and sprout around the edge of the bowl. Place one piece of chopped chicken on top of noodles. Garnish with peanuts and green onion.
Serve with fish sauce on the side for each person to pour over vermicelli and peanut sauce for dipping the salad rolls.
