Recipe video above. Big, juicy, slaw-like salad with chicken, and singing with signature Vietnamese flavours: Lots of fresh herbs and a zingy Nuoc Cham salad dressing. I like cutting the chicken into thin batons so it sort of blends into the cabbage - and it makes less goes further!Don't skimp on the herbs and peanuts here. It really brings added freshness and texture to the dish.This will serve 3 hungry adults or 4 normal servings (as a meal). Skip the chicken for a perfect Vietnamese side salad.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Herb Preservation Technique 🌿
    Wash and thoroughly dry herbs like cilantro and mint before chopping to prevent wilting and maintain crisp texture in the salad.
  • Cabbage Slicing Pro Tip 🔪
    Use a sharp knife or mandoline to create ultra-thin, uniform wombok cabbage shreds for the most authentic and appealing Vietnamese chicken salad texture.
  • Dressing Emulsification Trick 🥄
    Whisk the fish sauce, rice vinegar, and oil vigorously to create a perfectly blended dressing that will coat every ingredient evenly.
  • Chicken Moisture Hack 🍗
    Poach chicken breasts in seasoned broth instead of roasting to ensure maximum tenderness and prevent dryness before slicing into batons.
  • Peanut Crunch Maximizer 🥜
    Toast chopped peanuts in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before adding to enhance their nutty flavor and create a more pronounced crunch.
