Prep

  1. Rotisserie chicken - Take meat off the bone and shred. Use knife and fork or just hands. If you’re making tomorrow night’s dinner, prep both night’s portions. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)

  2. Red peppers / Napa cabbage / Carrots - Prep as directed. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)

  3. Make nuoc nam - Double ingredients if making Tuesday’s dinner too. Combine sweetener and water and boil (or heat in a microwave for 1 ½ to 2 minutes, until water is bubbling). Mix with remainder of sauce ingredients and season to taste with hot sauce. Adjust taste as needed - use aminos for more savory, more lime juice for tartness, more sweetener for sweetness. If you doubled, remember to set aside half. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)

  4. Basil - Chiffonade

Make

  1. Toss chicken, peppers, cabbage, carrots, and basil with nuoc nam and cooking oil. If possible, cover and refrigerate for ~30 minutes before enjoying. This will give the salad some time to marinate in the dressing’s flavors.
