Ingredients

• 4 Large flour tortillas
• 500 grams Chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 2 cups Cooked jasmine rice
• 1 large Carrot, julienned
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 small Cucumber, julienned
• 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup Peanut butter
• 0.5 cup Coconut milk
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha or Thai chili sauce
• 2 cloves Garlic, finely minced
• 1 tablespoon Cooking oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, make the peanut sauce by combining peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, Sriracha, and minced garlic. Heat over medium-low, stirring frequently, until smooth and well combined, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken breast and cook until fully cooked and lightly browned, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 3

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds on each side or in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 4

Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a spoonful of peanut sauce in the center, leaving room at the edges for folding.

Step 5

Add a portion of jasmine rice, followed by cooked chicken, julienned carrot, red bell pepper, cucumber, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Step 6

Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 7

Serve the Thai burritos warm, with extra peanut sauce on the side for dipping.
