  • 2 In medium saucepan, bring 6 cups (1.5 L) of water to a boil. Add rice noodles; cook 2 to 4 minutes or until soft. Rinse under cold water; drain well. Set aside.
  • 3 Arrange 1 heaping tbsp (15 mL) of chicken onto wrapper. Place a small portion of rice noodles over chicken. Place some cucumber, carrots and 4 to 5 mint leaves over noodles. Top with a lettuce leaf.
  • 4 Roll wrapper according to package directions. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
  • 5 Thai Kitchen Tip:
    o Cover prepared spring rolls tightly with plastic wrap as they will harden when left out and exposed to air. Serve rolls whole or cut in half just before serving. Spring rolls can be made up to 1 day before serving. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and store in refrigerator.
