Vietnamese Cous Cous Salad
June 24, 2013
It's important to really brown the meat because it mimics how it's usually grilled at restaurants.
The sauce was just some sriracha, fish sauce, honey, and chiles.
Loaded with goodness.
Mix it up!
A great little dish to bring to your next BBQ, or just make it on a Sunday night and bring it to work for lunch for a few days.
It's addicting though, so watch out!
