Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons curry powder
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cucumber, julienned
• 1 large carrot, julienned
• 8 pieces large lettuce leaves (such as romaine or butter lettuce)
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the coconut oil. Once melted, add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the curry powder and cook for 1 more minute to toast the spices.

Step 5

Add the sliced chicken to the skillet, stirring well to coat it in the spices. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, or until the chicken begins to brown.

Step 6

Pour in the coconut milk and lime juice, stirring everything together. Season with sea salt and black pepper.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.

Step 8

While the chicken is simmering, prepare the vegetables by julienning the cucumber and the carrot.

Step 9

Lay the lettuce leaves flat and add a portion of the julienned vegetables onto each leaf.

Step 10

Once the chicken is ready, divide it evenly among the lettuce leaves on top of the vegetables.

Step 11

Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the assembled wraps.

Step 12

To serve, roll the lettuce leaves around the filling to create wraps. Enjoy immediately.
