Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
  • 8 rice paper wrappers
  • 1 cup vermicelli noodles
  • ½ cup fresh mint leaves
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro
  • ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • Water (as needed for consistency)

Instructions

  1. 1. Cook the chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, cook until golden brown, about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest before slicing thinly.
  2. 2. Prepare the vermicelli noodles: Boil water, add noodles, and cook according to package instructions (about 3-4 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold water.
  3. 3. Assemble ingredients: Gather sliced chicken, cooled noodles, mint leaves, and cilantro.
  4. 4. Soak rice paper wrappers: Dip each wrapper in warm water until soft (10-15 seconds) and remove carefully.
  5. 5. Roll it up: Lay a soaked wrapper flat on a clean surface, place fillings in the center, fold sides over filling, and roll tightly from the bottom up.
  6. 6. Make the dipping sauce: Mix peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, and water until smooth.
