Peanut Chicken Wrap Star Ingredients
Boneless skinless chicken breast: You can use chicken breast or tenderloins for this recipe. Veggies: We used fresh vegetables like shredded purple cabbage, carrots, white onion, green onions, and crisp butter lettuce in this easy recipe. Rice vinegar: This is added to the cabbage mixture and peanut sauce to give it a delightful, tangy taste. Sesame oil: Creates a hint of nutty flavor to the cabbage salad and peanut sauce. Creamy Peanut Butter: The main ingredient for our delicious Thai chicken wrap. Soy sauce: Great for adding an umami flavor to the peanut sauce and veggies. Chopped peanuts: We used roasted and salted crunchy peanuts for these Thai chicken wraps. Flour tortillas: The perfect vessel for wrapping up all the delicious ingredients. Sriracha: Adds a kick of spice to the peanut sauce! Fresh ginger: You can’t make an Asian-inspired chicken wrap without ginger! Honey: Just a little bit to balance out the flavors in our peanut sauce.
Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Definitely! Swap the flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas like spinach tortillas or corn tortillas. Lettuce wraps would also be a great option for a low-carb version — delish!.
Don’t have some of the veggies listed?
Get creative and use what you have on hand. Red bell pepper, cucumbers, and avocado would all make great additions to these wraps.
Can I use pre-cooked chicken?
Totally! Leftover rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken would be great additions to these wraps. Simply warm up the chicken before adding it to the wrap.
How many wraps does this peanut chicken wrap recipe make?
The size of the tortilla used, and the amount of filling added to each wrap will determine the number of wraps made. This recipe makes about 4-6 wraps using a standard 8-inch tortilla when you spread the ingredients evenly across all tortillas. You can easily double or triple the recipe to make more wraps for a bigger crowd or meal prep.
Peanut Chicken Wrap Storage Instructions
We recommend storing the components of the wrap separately and assembling them just before serving. You can store the chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The extra peanut sauce can also be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Dip ANYTHING into it 😀
What to Enjoy It With
Serve these peanut chicken wraps with a side of fresh fruit, tortilla chips or a side salad for a balanced meal. This Fruit Salad Recipe, Ginger Pea Salad, or Rainbow Sesame Noodle Salad would all pair well with the wraps. You can also serve them as an appetizer by cutting the wraps into smaller pieces and arranging them on a platter for easy grabbing.
