Thai Chicken Salad

From the Keri Fisher collection
Serves 4

Ingredients

Dressing

cup sugar
~ Juice of 2 limes (about ⅓ cup)
2 small dried red chile peppers, minced (or up to 4 if you like the dressing spicy)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. minced ginger
2 Tbsp. fish sauce

Salad

4 cups roasted chicken, shredded
2 medium carrots, grated
2 cups shredded Napa cabbage
1 red pepper, sliced very thin
2 Tbsp. chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp. chopped mint
1 bunch scallions, sliced thin on the bias
~ Salt and pepper to taste

Steps

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar in ⅓-cup hot water. Set aside to cool. When cool, add the remaining dressing ingredients and mix well.
