Description

Delicious Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps filled with marinated chicken, crunchy vegetables, and creamy peanut sauce, all wrapped in a soft tortilla.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless chicken breast
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 fresh lettuce leaves
  • 1/4 head purple cabbage
  • 2 carrots
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and honey until the mixture is smooth. Set this delicious sauce aside.
  2. Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and place them in a bowl. Toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Let the chicken marinate for about 10 minutes while you prepare your veggies.
  3. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, shred the purple cabbage, julienne the carrots into thin matchsticks, and chop the fresh cilantro. Arrange the vegetables in separate bowls for easy assembly.
  4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  5. Warm flour tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds until soft and pliable.
  6. Spread 2 tablespoons of the peanut sauce down the center of each tortilla. Layer with lettuce, purple cabbage, carrots, the cooked chicken, and fresh cilantro. Drizzle with additional peanut sauce if desired.
  7. Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly from bottom to top. Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately with extra peanut sauce on the side.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, and keep the peanut sauce separate to prevent sogginess.
