Ingredients
  

  • 5 rice paper wrappers
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 handful of carrot sticks
  • 10 fresh basil leaves, cut into small strips
  • 2 radishes, cut into thin rounds
  • 4-5 lettuce leaves, torn into smaller pieces
  • 3-4 oz cooked chicken (optional)

Peanut Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/4-1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp garlic
  • 2 dashes of sriracha

Instructions
 

  • Cut vegetables and chicken and set aside.
  • Fill a medium bowl with warm water.
  • Working one at a time, dip one rice paper wrapper in the warm water and then transfer to a counter or cutting board. Fill the center of the wrapper with lettuce, red bell pepper, carrots, radishes, chicken (if using), and basil).
  • Gently pull the end of the wrapper furthest from you over all of the ingredients. The wrappers are pliable but still delicate. Pull each of the sides in over the ingredients to seal it them in and then roll the spring roll over toward you and over the part of the wrapper nearest you.
  • Repeat for as many rolls as you'd like. When you are finished, cut each spring roll in half.
  • Mix all the ingredients together for the peanut sauce. Pour into a small bowl and serve alongside the spring rolls.
