Flavorful, fresh & packed with nutrients! Grilled lemongrass chicken on a bed of fresh crunchy veggies + vermicelli noodles! So simple and healthy! Great for dinner or leftovers for lunch!

One of my favorite things about Vietnamese vermicelli bowls is the amount of fresh veggies I can pack in! I love carrots, daikon, fresh greens and bean sprouts! This is light but filling dish! The noodles and fresh veggies tossed with the fish sauce is amazing and light! The grilled lemongrass chicken is the perfect addition that brings the whole dish together!
Lemongrass has pale yellow-green tough stalk and a light citrus scent. It brings a unique flavor to the dish! Whenever I order from a Vietnamese restaurant, I’d likely get a vermicelli bowl (and spring rolls) !!

Hope you love this as much as I did!! xx
