Ingredients | Sweet Potato Vermicelli

2 tablespoons chopped lemongrass

1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts

¼ cup fish sauce

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 tablespoon white sugar

1 tablespoon water

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 (8 ounce) package dried rice noodles

2 cups shredded lettuce

1 cup bean sprouts

½ cup grated carrot

½ cup grated cucumber

¼ cup torn mint leaves

Directions

Mix lemongrass, 1 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic together in a bowl until sugar is dissolved; add chicken and turn to coat in the marinade.

Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to 1 hour.

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Transfer chicken to the hot grill, discarding marinade. Grill chicken until no longer pink in the center, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Whisk fish sauce, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, rice vinegar, white sugar, water, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl to make dressing.

Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Let soak until softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and rinse thoroughly.

Combine noodles, lettuce, bean sprouts, carrot, cucumber, and mint leaves in a large bowl. Slice grilled chicken and arrange over salad; drizzle dressing on top.
