Ingredients

Method

Sprinkle chicken with a pinch each of the salt and pepper. Place on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside, about 12 minutes. Cover loosely; let stand for 5 minutes before thinly slicing crosswise.

Meanwhile, in large bowl, add vermicelli and enough boiling water to cover. Let stand for 6 minutes; drain. Rinse with cold water; drain again.

Meanwhile, in small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; cook ginger and garlic, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in green onions and remaining salt and pepper; cook until onions are softened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in lime juice, soy sauce, honey and chili sauce.

In large bowl, toss ginger mixture with vermicelli, red pepper, carrot and cucumber. Top with chicken.
