  • 1 Tbs fish sauce

  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1/4 cup cilantro, minced

  • Add chicken, turning to coat in marinade. Cover bowl; refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat charcoal grill or oven broiler. Place chicken on grill or broiler, skin side down. Turn after about 10 minutes.
  • Cook until juices run clear or fork can be inserted into the chicken with ease, about 30 minutes. Cool chicken slightly; cut into strips.
  • Combine all of the dressing ingredients and stir until the sugar dissolves; set aside.
  • Arrange red lettuce leaves on six plates. Combine shredded lettuce, bell pepper, and mint; place on top of the red lettuce leaves.
  • Place an equal portion of chicken onto each plate. Sprinkle with peanuts and drizzle with the dressing.
