I love how each bite of chicken is infused with the blend of aromatic coriander, pungent fish sauce, and refreshing lime. Toss in some diced cucumber when you feel like having more crunch. Pair with some tea for a snack, or serve it as a side dish with rice and any gravy-based or curry dish.

Ingredients

  • 200 gram cooked chicken (poached or roasted)
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves
  • 2 hot chiles, like jalapeños, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • 2 fresh shallots, thinly sliced
  • 3 teaspoon lime juice
  • 2 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoon fried shallots
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
