QUICK, FRESH SALAD HAS ZEST, SPICE, NICE CRUNCH

- BY YEWANDE KOMOLAFE

This extremely quick salad gets dinner on the table in mere minutes. Nuoc cham ,a Vietnamese sauce bright with lime juice and chile, gives the dish its salty-sweet finish, while thinly sliced bell pepper and shaved cabbage provide crunch.

You can use a store-bought rotisserie chicken — or any leftover chicken: Just make sure you pull it apart so the craggy bits and ridges along the edges soak up the dressing.
