Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 4 large flour tortillas or wraps (whole wheat optional)
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cucumber, julienned
  • 1/2 cup shredded purple cabbage
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced

Peanut Sauce

  • 1/3 cup natural creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 12 teaspoons sriracha (to taste)
  • 23 tablespoons water (to thin)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together all peanut sauce ingredients. Add water to reach a thick but pourable consistency. Adjust seasonings as needed.
  2. Prepare the vegetables by slicing thinly or julienning.
  3. Warm tortillas slightly to make them easier to roll.
  4. Spread about 2 tablespoons of peanut sauce down the center of each tortilla.
  5. Top with chicken and a mix of bell pepper, carrots, cucumber, cabbage, cilantro, and green onion.
  6. Fold in the sides, roll from the bottom up, and slice in half. Serve with extra sauce if desired.

Notes

Make it vegetarian by substituting tofu, tempeh, or chickpeas for chicken. Use almond or sunflower seed butter for a peanut-free version. Swap in lettuce leaves for low-carb wraps.
