Thai Peanut Coconut Chicken Lettuce Wrap Recipes

THAI CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Gather all of your ingredients, wash the vegetables, shred and cut the carrots, cucumber and chicken.
• Combine all ingredients for the sauce except the water. Whisk until smooth. Use the water to thin the sauce to desired consistency.
• Turn the grill to 400°F and heat it through while preparing the sauce and chicken.
• Add the chicken breast strips to a bowl and mix together with a ½ cup of the prepared peanut sauce and 2 tsp of kosher salt.
• Grill the chicken strips on each side for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until cooked through in the middle. Then, remove to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm until ready to serve.
• Arrange all the ingredients on a large platter, then pour the sauce into a dish and place it in the middle. Pour a little bit of the peanut sauce on top of the chicken and sprinkle with the chopped peanuts. The Thai Lettuce Wraps can be pre-wrapped by adding a little bit of each ingredient to a butter lettuce leaf and then wrapping it into a roll, or each guest can create their own wrap.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together all of the sauce ingredients: peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, Sriracha, ginger, and lime. Set aside.
• Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Heat half of the oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chicken (be careful as the oil may splatter), and sauté the chicken until fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes per side.
• Transfer to a bowl and blot away any excess oil. To the bowl, add 1/4 cup of the peanut sauce, then toss to coat the chicken. Reserve the rest of the sauce for serving.
• To the same skillet in which you cooked the chicken, add the remaining oil and let warm for 30 seconds. Add the broccoli slaw, edamame, carrots, and half of the green onions and sauté until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• To assemble wraps, spread a spoonful of the reserved sauce on each tortilla.
• Top with the chicken, vegetables, chopped peanuts, remaining green onions, and fresh cilantro. Wrap and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
