Vietnamese-style chicken slaw

By Phillippa Cheifitz
4 to 6
Easy
20 minutes, plus 30 minutes' marinating time

Ingredients

  • 300 g free-range rotisserie chicken breast, shredded
  • 2 cups Chinese cabbage, finely shredded
  • 2 sticks celery, peeled and shredded
  • 2 medium carrots, shredded
  • 4 small crisp cucumbers, shredded
  • 4 - 6 spring onions, shredded
  • Mint, a handful, torn
  • Coriander, a handful, torn
  • Salt, to taste
  • For the dressing, mix:

  • 3 T fresh lime juice
  • 3 T fish sauce
  • 3 T canola oil
  • 2 T soft brown sugar
  • 1 T rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 2 - 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 - 2 fresh red chillies, finely chopped

Method

Marinate the chicken in the dressing for 30 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and toss. Add salt to taste and more sugar or lime juice if necessary.

Cook's note: An assertive dressing works well with the robust flavour of the rotisserie chicken.
