Salad Rolls with Smoked Chicken
❤️ About This Recipe
I love smoked chicken for its convenience and wonderful taste. I’ve been trying different ways to enjoy it, and this recipe was a delightful surprise. Who would have thought that combining smoked chicken with Viennese rolls would be such a hit?
The smoked chicken complements the refreshing mint leaves, crispy vegetables, and a sweet, tangy dressing. It’s not too complicated, yet it tastes fabulous.
🥗 Ingredients for Chicken Spring Rolls
- Chicken: I used smoked chicken breast from the supermarket, but feel free to use any part of the smoked chicken for this recipe. Alternatively, you can also use any leftover roast chicken you have.
- Rice Paper: At the Asian supermarket, you’ll come across various shapes and sizes of rice paper, which can be quite overwhelming to choose from. I found that using 22cm round Vietnamese rice paper wrappers makes it easier to wrap the rolls.
- Vermicelli Rice Noodles: There are different types of vermicelli rice noodles. Pick the thinnest one that can be softened by soaking in the hot water for 10 minutes.
🌯 Instructions
- Cook Smoked Chicken: Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook the smoked chicken pieces until slightly browned. Set aside.
- Prepare Sauce: Combine all ingredients for the dipping sauce in a medium-sized bowl, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Soak Rice Paper: Immerse the rice paper in hot water for 10 seconds until it becomes pliable. Transfer it to a cutting board.
- Fill and Roll: Fill the wrapper with all the ingredients, folding it away from you. Halfway through, fold in two sides. Continue rolling until you reach the end.
- Serve: Present the spring rolls with the dipping sauce.
This Smoked Chicken Spring roll dish is incredibly light and healthy, perfect for sharing with friends and family or bringing to potlucks. If you enjoyed this recipe, consider giving it a five-star rating. 👨🍳
