Description

Warm and delicious wraps filled with tender chicken, fresh veggies, and a creamy peanut dressing, perfect for weeknight dinners or gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup peanut butter (natural, creamy)
  • 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar or honey
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 12 teaspoons sriracha sauce (to taste)
  • Water, as needed to thin
  • 3 cups cooked chicken breast, chopped
  • 3 cups coleslaw mix
  • 1 cup grated carrots
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • ½ cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
  • 6 large flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. Make the Peanut Dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, brown sugar (or honey), rice wine vinegar, minced garlic, ginger, and sriracha until smooth. If it’s too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches a pourable consistency.
  2. Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped chicken, coleslaw mix, grated carrots, cilantro, and roasted peanuts. Toss gently to mix everything together.
  3. Dress the Filling: Pour the prepared peanut dressing over the chicken mixture. Toss until everything is evenly coated. Let it sit for 3-5 minutes for the flavors to meld beautifully.
  4. Warm Tortillas: Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for about 30 seconds until they are pliable. This makes assembling the wraps much easier!
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat. Place about one-sixth of the filling in the center. Fold in the sides and roll it up tightly from the bottom. Slice diagonally if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For vegetarians, swap out the chicken for crispy tofu or tempeh. Store leftover filling in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
