STOVE: heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add chicken and cook for about 3-5 minutes per side.
AIR FRYER: preheat the air fryer to 400F and arrange chicken in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through (chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165F).
Once cooked, allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Make the sauce by whisking together rice vinegar, garlic, lime juice, honey, soy sauce, vegetable oil, hoisin sauce and sriracha.
- In a large bowl combine the cooked rice noodles, chopped green cabbage and ¼ of the sauce. Toss to combine.
- When you are ready to serve, add rice noodle mixture to a bowl and top with cucumbers, carrots, green onions, bell pepper.
- Top each bowl with sliced chicken, and sprinkle with herb serrano peppers, herb mixture, chopped peanuts and sesame seeds.
