For the Pickled Carrots:

3 tsp sugar

1
Put carrots and all pickling ingredients into a bowl and set aside to marinate.
2
In a bowl, add lime juice, fish sauce, 1/2 tsp salt, fresh black pepper, 2 tbsp oil, shallots and garlic. Add chicken and mix well. Put the mixture and the chicken in a zip lock back, take out excess air and seal. Massage well and refrigerate for at least an hour.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Section the baguette into sandwich size portions, put in a sheet tray and toast for a few minutes (just so there is a bit of a crunchy texture).
