I can honestly say that this in my husbands absolute favorite meal! He would eat this everyday if he could. He also loves it with steak. It is a quick/cheap meal....we love those kind of meals! I first saw this recipe on an episode of 30 Minute Meals and I immediately knew I had to make it! We are a big fan of brown rice and avocados, so when I prepare the wraps I include a nice scoop of hearty brown rice and a couple of avocado slices....SO GOOD! Make sure to drizzle extra peanut sauce on top! This a a very light meal-perfect for summer. I hope you all enjoy!
Thai Chicken Wraps
3 (6-ounce) chicken breasts
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon grill seasoning
Salad:
1/2 seedless cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced on an angle (I use a whole cucumber)
2 cups fresh bean sprouts
1 cup shredded carrots, available in pouches in produce department
3 scallions, sliced on an angle
12 leaves basil, chopped or torn
3 tablespoons chopped mint leaves (4 sprigs) (I just use the basil or add some cilantro)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 teaspoons sugar (I omit this)
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar or white vinegar
Salt
Spicy peanut sauce:
1/4 cup room temperature chunky peanut butter, soften in microwave if it has been refrigerated
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar or white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil ( I omit this and just use more soy sauce and vinegar)
4 (12-inch) flour tortilla wraps
Directions
Heat a grill pan over high heat. Toss chicken with soy and oil and grill 6 minutes on each side.
Combine cucumber, sprouts, carrots, scallions, basil, mint and sesame with a generous sprinkle of sugar and vinegar. Season salad with salt, to taste.
Whisk peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar and cayenne together. Stream in vegetable oil.
Slice cooked chicken on an angle. Toss with veggies and herbs.
In a very hot nonstick skillet or over a gas burner heat tortillas 15 seconds on each side.
Pile chicken and veggies in wraps and drizzle liberally with spicy peanut sauce before wrapping and rolling.
