Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 1 whole Red bell pepper
- 1 large Carrot
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 6 pieces Lettuce leaves (for wrapping)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by preparing the chicken marinade. In a bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of low sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of hoisin sauce, and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Mince 3 cloves of garlic and grate 1-inch piece of ginger, and add them to the bowl.
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and mix them into the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, peel and julienne the carrot, and thinly slice the green onions.
Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips, along with all the marinade, to the pan. Cook for about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned.
Remove the chicken from the heat and set it aside to cool slightly.
To assemble the wraps, take a lettuce leaf and lay it flat. Place a few strips of cooked chicken on top of the lettuce, followed by slices of red bell pepper, carrot, and green onions.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.
Carefully roll the lettuce leaf around the filling to create a wrap.
Repeat this process for the remaining lettuce leaves and filling.
Serve the wraps immediately, and enjoy your healthy, high-protein meal!
