• 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil

• 2 stalks (finely sliced) Green onions
• 0.25 cup (chopped) Cilantro
• 6 pieces Tortillas

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the marinade by mixing soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small bowl.

Step 2

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

In a large skillet or wok, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry for 6-8 minutes until fully cooked and slightly caramelized.

Step 4

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the fresh toppings: shred carrots, julienne cucumber, slice green onions, and chop cilantro.

Step 5

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until pliable.

Step 6

To assemble, place a portion of the cooked chicken onto the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded carrots, cucumber, green onions, and cilantro.

Step 7

Squeeze fresh lime juice over the toppings and garnish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

Step 8

Fold the tortillas into a wrap or leave them open-faced as desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
