Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1 cup Carrots, julienned or shredded
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Cucumber, sliced into thin strips
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 6 pieces Romaine lettuce leaves or large tortilla wraps
- 0.25 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and warm water until smooth and creamy. Set the ginger-peanut dressing aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, carrots, red bell pepper, cucumber, cilantro, and green onions.
Pour the ginger-peanut dressing over the chicken and vegetables. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
If using romaine lettuce, lay out large leaves to form a sturdy wrap base. If using tortilla wraps, warm them slightly to make them pliable.
Spoon the chicken salad mixture onto the center of each lettuce leaf or tortilla wrap. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts, if desired, for added crunch.
Roll up the wraps tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, or fold the lettuce leaves around the filling like a bundle.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate the wraps for up to 2 hours before serving.
