Directions

Step 1

Begin by thinly slicing the chicken breasts into strips.

Mince the garlic and add it to the marinade. Stir to combine.

Add the marinated chicken and vegetable mixture to the pan and cook for about 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Remove mixture from heat once the chicken is no longer pink and the vegetables are softened.

Step 9

Lay lettuce leaves out flat and spoon the cooked chicken and vegetable mixture evenly onto the center of each leaf.

Step 10

Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top of each wrap.

Step 11

Roll the lettuce leaves tightly around the filling to form wraps.
