Best		 A rather pleasant salad with an interesting set of textures. Very similar boneless chicken foot salads are popular in Thailand and Vietnam, so deboned feet are available in larger Asian markets in Los Angeles.

NOTES:

  1. Chicken Feet:

      Boneless chicken feet can be found in markets that serve a large Southeast Asian community. If you can't find them, you'll have to debone the regular chicken feet yourself. Those you can find in a wide range of ethnic markets. For details see our Chicken Foot Page.

  2. Green Mango:

      These need to be very unripe. Markets serving Southeast Asian communities have bins of green mangos, usually at a significantly higher price than ripe ones. The weight should 13 to 16 ounces.

  3. Chilis:

      3 Thai chilis gives a noticeable bite but pretty mild by Thai standards. Feel free to bump it up if you like. For details see our Thai Chilis page.
  4. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch, ar=as required tt=to taste
