Istruzioni

In a small bowl, mix together all of the ingredients for the chicken marinade until smooth. Add chicken and marinade with 1 teaspoon of the oil to a large ziploc bag and place in the refrigerator to marinate for 2+ hours or overnight.

To make the fish sauce, combine the fish sauce ingredients and mix well to dissolve the sugar. Adjust to your taste (lime + sweetness) and set aside for at least 30 minutes for all of the flavors to meld together. Set aside.

In a frying pan over medium heat, heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Remove chicken from the marinade, and place into the pan cooking each side until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side.

Remove from the pan and set aside to slightly cool while you build the bowls.

Add cooked vermicelli noodles to a bowl. Top off with desired amounts of bean sprouts, cucumber, mint, cilantro, carrots, and iceberg lettuce.

Slice chicken and add to bowls. Top off with crushed peanuts and fish sauce. Enjoy right away.
