Peanut Chicken Lettuce Wraps Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

• Chicken breasts
• Spices: The specific spices aren’t listed, but they mention using a few spices for the chicken.

For the Peanut Sauce (not authentic Asian sauce, more of a sweet peanut dressing):

• The specific ingredients are not listed in the provided text, but it suggests it’s made from a blend of ingredients, including honey for sweetness and optional cayenne pepper or chili sauce for added spice.

To Make the Veggies:

• Butter (Boston) lettuce
• Carrots (matchstick)
• Persian or English cucumbers
• Red, orange, or yellow bell pepper
• Optionally: red cabbage, thinly sliced kale, or broccoli slaw

Toppings:

• Chopped peanuts or cashews (roasted and salted)
• Fresh cilantro
• Lime wedges

Instructions:

Prepare the Chicken:

• Slice chicken breasts in half for even thickness. Grill or sauté with seasonings until fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Let it rest before cutting into smaller pieces. Alternatively, you can use diced rotisserie chicken for a quicker option.

Make the Peanut Sauce:

• Blend the sauce ingredients until smooth. Adjust sweetness and spice to taste.

Prepare the Veggies:

• Wash and dry the lettuce leaves.
• Prep carrots, cucumbers, and bell pepper into thin slices or matchsticks.

Assemble the Wraps:

• Lay out a lettuce leaf, add a spoonful of cooked chicken, top with the veggie mixture, sprinkle with nuts, and drizzle with the peanut sauce.
• Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.

Quick Tips:

• Choose lettuce that is large and flexible enough to wrap easily.
• Adjust the peanut sauce ingredients to customize the level of sweetness or spiciness to your liking.
