Ingredients

• 6 sheets Seaweed wraps
• 200 grams Cooked chicken breast
• 1 medium-sized Cucumber
• 1 medium-sized Carrot
• 1 medium-sized Red bell pepper
• 4 large Lettuce leaves
• 0.5 cup Cilantro
• 1 ripe Avocado
• 1 large Lime
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce or tamari
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Ginger

Directions

Step 1

Julienne the cucumber, carrot, and red bell pepper into thin strips.

Step 2

Chop the cooked chicken breast into small pieces.

Step 3

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice finely.

Step 4

Chop the cilantro coarsely.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce or tamari with sesame oil and grated ginger, whisking them together to form a dressing.

Step 6

In another bowl, mix the chopped chicken with half of the dressing, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated.

Step 7

Lay one sheet of seaweed flat on a clean surface. Place a piece of lettuce leaf at one edge as a base.

Step 8

Layer julienned cucumber, carrot, red bell pepper, a few slices of avocado, chopped cilantro, and a portion of the seasoned chicken on top of the lettuce.

Step 9

Squeeze a few drops of lime juice over the filling.

Step 10

Roll the seaweed sheet tightly to form a cylindrical shape, ensuring the filling is enclosed. Use a bit of water to seal the end of the seaweed sheet.

Step 11

Repeat the layering and rolling process with the remaining ingredients.

Step 12

Once all roll-ups are prepared, slice each roll into bite-sized pieces.

Step 13

Serve immediately with the remaining dressing as a dipping sauce.
