Creating the Thai Peanut Chicken Wrap at home is simple and fun! Follow these easy steps to bring this dish to life:
1. Prepare the Peanut Sauce: In a bowl, combine peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, grated ginger, and chili paste. Mix well. If the sauce is too thick, add water gradually until you achieve your desired consistency.
2. Cook the Chicken: If not using pre-cooked chicken, season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then cook them in a skillet over medium heat until no longer pink. Shred the chicken once cooked.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: Rinse and slice the bell peppers, cucumber, and red onion. Shred the carrots if not already prepped.
4. Assemble the Wrap: Lay a lettuce leaf flat on a clean surface. Add a scoop of shredded chicken, followed by a handful of each vegetable, and a drizzle of peanut sauce.
5. Wrap It Up: Gently fold the sides of the lettuce leaf over the filling, then roll it from the bottom up to create a tight wrap.
6. Garnish: Top each wrap with chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts for added flavor and texture.
7. Serve: Repeat the wrapping process for the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately with extra peanut sauce on the side for dipping.
