Vietnamese spring rolls always make great light-dinner fare, but the assembly can be time-consuming. Here's our solution: Set out the ingredients and let guests make their own. They'll have fun playing with their food, and the cook won't get stuck with all the prep work.

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces thin rice noodles
  • 1 head butter lettuce, broken into leaves
  • 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 2 papayas, peeled, seeded, and thinly sliced
  • About 1 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 cup purchased spicy peanut sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped roasted salted peanuts
  • 3 green onions, sliced into thin strips
  • Lime wedges
  • 12 large sheets rice paper*

One of the best, fun, entertaining recipes I've ever found. Delicious and a great way to use delicious Papaya's. What a taste treat to behold! Great for a dinner party of four. I bought a ready cooked chicken, shredded and froze until needed. A nice dessert such as a lemon curd, berry tart or individual baked Alaska's is all that's needed for a complete meal. Of course, a nice chardonnay is a great addition.
