In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, water, sugar and salt. Bring to a boil, and stir until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, cool.

Surround the vegetables with 170g of fries. Top the vegetables with 113g of cooked chicken thighs. Garnish with a drizzle with about 30g of mayonnaise, cilantro sprig and a lime wedge.
