Thai Chicken Wraps

My close friend, who I consider a fabulous cook, recently introduced me to this mouth savoring recipe. It is already a family favorite in our house.

Thai Chicken Wraps

1 lb chicken, thawed and cut into small pieces

2 teaspoons soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon ginger

2 carrots, grated

Chopped cilantro

1 bunch green onions, sliced

1/2 cucumber, quartered

2-3 cups cooked rice (I prefer brown.)

Wraps or tortillas (We like the Garden Spinach kind.)

Peanut sauce (You can buy it at the store or make your own, see below.)

Marinate small chicken pieces in soy sauce and ginger for 10 minutes – 1 hour. Cook chicken in a skillet. In a wrap, layer the rice, cooked chicken, carrots, cucumber, cilantro and green onions. Pour the peanut sauce over the filling. Wrap like a burrito. Enjoy!

Peanut Sauce

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

3 tablespoons sugar

1/3 cup peanut butter

Blend in blender until smooth.

  5. I’m going to try this one.
    It looks great!

  6. Just wanted you to know we had these last night and they were awesome–I changed the recipe a little to get it to match what I’d had at a restaurant, omitting the onions and rice and adding everything else to the chicken when it was done, including a diced can of water chestnuts. We wrapped it in lettuce leaves and it was a fabulous, low-fat and low-carb meal. I’ll be making it again. Thanks for sharing.

    I have made these several times now – but as bowls, as opposed to wraps. I just layer all the ingredients on top of the rice. So yummy!
