Instructions
- Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and warm water until smooth and creamy.
- Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, cucumber, green onions, and cilantro.
- Add the sauce: Pour about half of the peanut sauce over the chicken mixture and toss until evenly coated.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay the tortillas flat and divide the chicken mixture among them. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and drizzle with additional peanut sauce if desired.
- Roll and serve: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, roll tightly, slice in half, and serve immediately with extra peanut sauce for dipping.
Notes
For extra crunch, add bean sprouts or shredded purple cabbage. These wraps are great for meal prep—store the filling and tortillas separately until ready to assemble. Substitute grilled shrimp, tofu, or rotisserie chicken for delicious variations.
