Description
Delicious Asian Chicken Crunch Salad Wraps Recipe to Try!
Ingredients
- Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Large lettuce leaves (romaine or butter lettuce)
- Shredded carrots
- Bell peppers
- Cucumbers
- Toasted peanuts or almonds
- Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free option)
- Sesame oil
- Rice vinegar
- Sriracha or chili paste (optional)
- Fresh cilantro
- Green onions
- Honey (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the Chicken: Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of oil and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Once done, let it rest for a few minutes before shredding it into bite-sized pieces.
- Prepare the Vegetables: While the chicken is cooking, wash and chop your veggies. Shred the carrots, thinly slice the bell peppers, and julienne the cucumbers. The more colorful your veggies, the more appealing your wraps will look!
- Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and any additional spices you like. I often add a spoonful of honey for a touch of sweetness and some sriracha for heat.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, toss the shredded chicken, veggies, and dressing until everything is well coated. Add in chopped cilantro and green onions, and mix gently.
- Assemble the Wraps: Take a lettuce leaf and spoon a generous amount of the chicken and veggie mixture into the center. Top with toasted nuts for that crunch, then fold the sides over and roll it up like a burrito.
- Serve: Arrange the wraps on a platter and serve with extra dressing on the side for dipping. Enjoy your delicious, healthy meal!
