- 8 sheets rice paper spring roll wrappers
- 100 g of vermicelli rice noodles
- 100 g of cooked shredded chicken (1 cup)
- 1 cup of shredded fresh spinach
- 1 grated carrot
- 1-2 sprigs of fresh parsley, chopped
- 2-3 mint leaves, chopped
Soy Peanut sauce
- 4 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon of brown sugar
- 1/2 cup of peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- Pinch of garlic powder
- Pinch of salt and pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional)
If you are not using leftover rotisserie chicken, cook the chicken in a large saucepan for 25 minutes in a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Cook the vermicelli rice noodles in a large saucepan according to packet instructions.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, peanut butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder, lemon juice, and rice vinegar together to make the sauce.
Chop the spinach and grate the carrot into small portions
Fill a shallow pan with an inch of tepid warm water. Have a plate handy to use for making the wrap, along with all your fillings.
Lay the spring roll wrapper (rice paper) gently in the warm water and let it soak in the water for about 20 seconds or so until soft.
Move the rice paper to the plate that is dry and lay it flat. Once flat, add in your toppings in the center and fold into a spring roll.
Repeat for the remaining spring rolls.
Serve at room temperature, along side the sauce.
