Chicken Spring Rolls
Total Time: 35 minutes
Cooking authentic Asian food at home is easy if you have the right ingredients on hand. Soy sauce is a familiar Asian ingredient. It’s dark and salty and made from fermented soybeans and roasted wheat or barley. Fresh ginger is an important ingredient in Asian cuisine and you’ll be impressed by what even a small amount does to make your dish taste authentic.You can peel away the papery skin from fresh ginger with the back of a kitchen spoon, then grate it with a microplane or box grater. Lime juice adds a sparkle of authentic flavor to Asian dishes, too. Here’s an easy and delicious Spring Roll that pulls all these ingredients together. You can find this recipe, and lots more salad inspiration, at Dole.com
Directions
Combine chicken, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, ginger, lime juice and red pepper in medium bowl.
Pour warm water into shallow dish. To make each spring roll, place rice paper in water 30 to 60 seconds to soften; place on flat surface. Arrange about 1/4 cup each salad and chicken mixture on one half of rice paper, leaving 1-inch border. Top with a few cucumber and pepper strips and a little mint. Fold in sides and carefully roll up and seal.
Cut each in half diagonally and serve with Thai Peanut Dressing for a dipping sauce.
Thai Peanut Dressing: Whisk together 1/4 cup each reduced fat peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar and lime juice. Add a pinch of each crushed red pepper and ground ginger and whisk until blended. Makes 1 cup.
