Ingredients

• 2 pieces chicken breast
• 2 teaspoons fresh ginger
• 2 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 3 tablespoons peanut butter
• 0.25 cup coconut milk
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
• 4 pieces large tortillas
• 1 cup shredded carrot
• 1 medium, sliced into strips cucumber
• 4 large pieces lettuce leaves
• 0.25 cup cilantro
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Grate the ginger and mince the garlic. In a small bowl, mix together the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice.

Step 2

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and place them in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, coating it evenly. Let it marinate for 15-20 minutes.

Step 3

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the peanut sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, honey, and sriracha sauce. Stir until smooth and heated through, then set aside.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken strips to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until fully cooked and lightly browned.

Step 5

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Lay each tortilla flat and place a lettuce leaf in the center.

Step 6

Top the lettuce leaf with a portion of the cooked chicken, shredded carrot, cucumber slices, and a sprinkle of cilantro.

Step 7

Drizzle the peanut sauce over the fillings, then fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly into a wrap.

Step 8

Serve the wraps immediately, or wrap them in parchment paper for a grab-and-go meal.
