Anna's vietnamese rice paper roll recipe suggestion

Throwing back to this summer beach picnic as the cooler weather sets in!!! Especially after the Easter long weekend where treats may not have been consumed in moderation...  

Thanks to Grab Your Spork for the recipe :)

Instructions

• Firstly, marinate the chicken. Mix the zest, garlic and oil together in a bowl with chicken. Set aside for marinate for at least one hour or longer.
• Heat a pan over medium heat and grill the chicken until cooked through. Set the chicken aside to cool
