With the addition of fresh cilantro and a touch of lime juice, these wraps are both refreshing and satisfying. They make for a perfect quick meal or snack, and the wraps can be easily customized for any preference.
Ingredients
For the Chicken Wraps:
- 1 cup freshly chopped red cabbage
- 1 cup freshly chopped white cabbage
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1/3 cup roasted peanuts
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 cooked chicken breasts, chopped or sliced (can be replaced with rotisserie chicken, recommended)
- 6 large tortillas
For the Peanut Sauce:
- 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
- Salt to taste
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the freshly chopped red and white cabbage, shredded carrots, roasted peanuts, and chopped fresh cilantro.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, olive oil, peanut butter, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, pepper, salt, crushed red pepper flakes, grated ginger, and minced garlic until well combined to make the peanut sauce.
Add the chopped or sliced chicken breasts to the cabbage mixture and toss everything together until evenly combined.
Warm the tortillas slightly in the microwave or on a skillet to make them pliable.
Spoon the chicken and cabbage mixture onto each tortilla, then add a layer of chopped coriander and some roasted peanuts.
Drizzle generously with more peanut sauce if desired.
Roll up the tortillas tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Place the open side down on a serving dish.
Garnish with some chopped coriander (optional).
Serve with peanut sauce or sweet chili sauce and enjoy! Bil Afya!
