Ingredients

4 servings

  • ¼ cup water, or more to taste
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar, or more to taste
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
  • ½ teaspoon Sriracha chile sauce
  • 1 (8 ounce) package (linguine-width) rice noodles
  • 2 cups thinly sliced Napa (Chinese) cabbage
  • 1 ½ cups matchstick-cut carrots
  • 8 ounces grilled shrimp
  • 1 cup bean sprouts
  • ½ English cucumber, halved lengthwise and cut into thin slices
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 ⅔ tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 2 ⅔ tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 ⅔ tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • ½ cup coarsely chopped peanuts

Instructions

  • Whisk water, lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and Sriracha together in a bowl until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a full boil; remove from heat and soak rice noodles in the hot water for 1 minute. Stir to separate the noodles and continue soaking until the noodles are tender, about 3 minutes more. Drain noodles and rinse with cold water until cooled. Shake noodles in colander to drain as much water as possible.
  • Mix noodles, cabbage, carrots, shrimp, bean sprouts, cucumber slices, green onions, mint, cilantro, and basil together in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Top with chopped peanuts.
