Method

1. Cook the rice using packet instructions. For a quicker alternative, you can use our microwave rice.
2. In a medium saucepan, cover the chicken with water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and poach until the chicken is cooked through. Cool, then shred with your fingers or 2 forks.
3. To make the dressing, combine white vinegar, sugar, water, fish sauce, garlic, chilli and lime or lemon juice in a clean glass jar and shake well. Rest for 5 minutes and shake again. Repeat until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
4. Combine all the ingredients, but only half the dressing, in a large mixing bowl and fold gently with a rubber spatula to mix. Taste and add more dressing if required.
