👩🍳 Instructions
1
Marinate Chicken: In a medium bowl, combine thinly sliced chicken with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, and 1/4 tsp garlic powder. Toss to coat and let marinate for at least 10 minutes.
2
Cook Chicken: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked through and lightly golden. Remove from heat and set aside.
3
Prepare Peanut Sauce: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together peanut butter, 2 tbsp soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), lime juice, sriracha, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, and minced garlic. Gradually add 2-4 tbsp warm water, whisking until the sauce is smooth and reaches your desired drizzling consistency.
4
Assemble Wraps: Lay out clean, dry lettuce leaves. Spoon cooked chicken into the center of each leaf. Top with sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrot, and sliced cucumber.
5
Drizzle and Serve: Drizzle a generous amount of homemade peanut sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Garnish with fresh cilantro and chopped roasted peanuts. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side.
💡 Notes
For a vegetarian option, replace chicken with pan-fried tofu or tempeh. Store all components separately for best meal prep results. Adjust sriracha to your preferred spice level.
