📝 Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 4 to 5 cups thinly sliced Napa cabbage
- 2 cups thinly sliced English cucumbers
- 1 cup shredded or matchstick carrots
- 1 cup chopped cilantro (packed)
- 2 scallions, sliced
- 1 cup roasted peanuts (plus more for garnish)
- 1/3 cup Thai sweet chili sauce (I use Mae Ploy's brand)

- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 1 teaspoons honey (option for more sweetness)
- Water (as needed to thin out dressing)
👨🍳 Instructions
