Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon jasmine rice or another long-grain rice Coarse salt 1 pound ground chicken Lime-Chile Dressing 1/4 cup chopped fresh Thai basil, plus more for garnish 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish Freshly ground pepper 1 head Boston lettuce, leaves separated 1 carrot, peeled and cut into matchsticks 1/2 daikon radish, peeled and cut into matchsticks 3 tablespoons salted, roasted peanuts, chopped
Directions
Toast rice in a dry nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until deep golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Coarsely grind with a mortar and pestle or in a food processor.
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt. Boil chicken, separating it into pieces with a spoon, until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.
Transfer to a medium bowl with a slotted spoon; reserve 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Add dressing, rice, herbs, and cooking liquid; toss. Season with salt and pepper.
For each serving, put about 1/4 cup chicken in a lettuce leaf. Garnish with carrot, daikon, basil, cilantro, and nuts.
Cook’s Notes Ground, toasted rice adds crunch and a slight nuttiness to this salad. Thai basil, available at gourmet and farmers’ markets, has a licorice flavor, but you can use regular basil instead.
