Vietnamese Rolls with Peanut Dipping Sauce

Crunchy vegetables pair with hoisin-seasoned chicken in this refreshing appetizer. You can make the sauce and chicken mixture a few hours ahead, but assemble the rolls just before serving so they don't dry out.

Yield
12 servings (serving size: 1 roll and about 1 1/2 tablespoons sauce)
Ingredients
Sauce:
* 1/2 cup seasoned rice vinegar
* 1/4 cup honey
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/3 cup finely chopped roasted peanuts

Rolls:
* 1 tablespoon peanut oil
* 4 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
* 4 garlic cloves, minced
* 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1/4-inch-wide strips
* 1/3 cup hoisin sauce
* 1 teaspoon hot chile sauce (such as Sriracha)
* 12 (8-inch) round sheets rice paper
* 3 cups thinly sliced romaine lettuce
* 36 (2-inch) julienne-cut seeded peeled cucumber
* 36 (2-inch) julienne-cut red bell pepper
* 36 mint leaves


Preparation
To prepare sauce, combine first 3 ingredients in a small bowl, stirring until honey dissolves. Stir in peanuts.

To prepare rolls, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ginger, garlic, and chicken; sauté 5 minutes. Combine chicken mixture, hoisin sauce, and chile sauce; chill.

Add hot water to a large, shallow dish to a depth of 1 inch. Place 1 rice paper sheet in dish. Let stand 30 seconds or just until soft. Place sheet on a flat surface. Arrange 1/4 cup lettuce over half of sheet, leaving a 1-inch border. Top lettuce with 1/4 cup chicken mixture, 3 cucumber strips, 3 bell pepper strips, and 3 mint leaves. Folding sides of sheet over filling and starting with filled side, roll up jelly-roll fashion. Gently press seam to seal. Place roll, seam side down, on a serving platter (cover to keep from drying).

Repeat procedure with remaining sheets, lettuce, chicken mixture, cucumber strips, bell pepper strips, and mint leaves. Slice each roll in half diagonally. Serve rolls with sauce.
