Slice the white cabbage into thin strips and place it in a large bowl with the carrot.
Bring the shredded chicken to room temperature, since cold chicken leaves the dressing on the surface.
Whisk the fish sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, sugar, vinegar, and crushed garlic for 1 minute.
Massage the cabbage with one-third of the dressing for 2 minutes so it softens without starting to weep.
Add the chicken, mint, cilantro, and fried onions, then drizzle the remaining dressing carefully so the fried onions stay crisp instead of getting damp.
💡 Tip: Lightly salting the cabbage and resting it for 5 minutes before dressing helps keep it crisp.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve Goi Ga Bap Cai with roasted peanuts scattered over the top.
