I can’t count the amount of times I’ve had chicken carb, both while traveling in Laos but also in other parts of Asia. Chicken Carb is one of Laos national dishes along with green papaya salad, that is another favorite of mine. Chicken larb is a dish that has it all if you ask me! And it is the perfect combination of heat, sour, sweet and salty. You can either eat it in a salad bowl or serve it it lettuce leafs. My version of chicken carb is both a bit lighter since I made it sugar free and served it with cauliflower rice. This dish is very flavorful, a bit spicy but also fresh and zesty from the lime, fish sauce and fresh herbs. It is such an easy dish to make and perfect to serve for a bigger group of people or even to make for meal prep purpose. It is both gluten, grain free and low carb.
A few tips:
- Use Thai chili if you can find them at the store, otherwise you can replace them with regular chili.
- Taste the chili before adding it to the chicken. The heat of chilis vary a lot and therefore I always taste them before I decide how much to use.
- I used cauliflower rice, but you can swap it for regular rice if you prefer.
- Serve this chicken larb in bowls or eat from salad leafs.
