Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce, low sodium
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, freshly grated
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Carrot, thinly sliced
- 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 8 leaves Iceberg lettuce or Romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Chili sauce (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by cutting the chicken breast into thin strips.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and freshly grated ginger to make a marinade.
Add the chicken strips to the marinade and ensure they are well-coated. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the chicken is marinating, wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Set them aside to use as wraps later.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken, cooking for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until fully cooked and no longer pink.
Remove the chicken from the heat and let it cool slightly.
To assemble the wraps, lay a lettuce leaf flat, place a few strips of cooked chicken in the center, and top with bell pepper slices, carrot slices, green onions, cilantro, and a drizzle of chili sauce if using.
Sprinkle a pinch of sesame seeds over the top.
Fold the sides of the lettuce leaf over the filling to form a wrap.
Repeat with remaining ingredients and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for later enjoyment.
