Goi Ga - Vietnamese Chicken Salad


I made Goi Ga for the first time on Dec. 3. It was such a hit that I made it again on Dec. 7. It's one of the rare Vietnamese dishes I can think of which does not go with any rice or noodles.

- Boil 2 chicken breasts until cooked thoroughly (enough for 4 people)
- Use a knife and start shredding the chicken pieces to small thin flakey pieces.

- Begin 1 hour of slicing and dicing and julien-ing(or perhaps shorter if you have a food processor)
Onion, Garlic, Basil, Mint, Chives, Mango, Cabbage, Carrots, Vietnamese hot peppers.

- For the sauce, mix Nuoc Mam (Fish Sauce), Rice Vinegar, Sugar, Pepper and some water together. Add garlic, onion, basil and mint to mix with sauce.

- Pour sauce all over chicken and mix all the sliced ingredients together.

- Mix in some crushed peanuts when serving.
