I enjoy eating Vietnamese salad. It is such a refreshing dish. I have learned it doesn’t take long to prepare a salad, but it all depends on what you want to add. For this cold chicken salad, I decided to make it simple. You get to choose to whether to add fried garlic, fried shallots, or roasted peanuts. I would recommend it as it will give the salad that extra yummy crunch.
