Asian Chicken Lettuce Wrap
This chicken lettuce wrap is perfect to make for DIY lettuce wrap night.
Full of organic vegetables and proteins, topped with a slightly sweet sesame ginger sauce, it’s great for summer time lunch or dinner.
You can easily scale this recipe bigger to accommodate more guests.
In order to make prep easier, you can use a cheese grater for the carrots and the cucumbers on the biggest setting for matchsticks, and keep them in an airtight container in the fridge.
Be sure to use organic, free-range chicken and organic vegetables to avoid pesticides, hormones, and unnecessary antibiotics.
You can use dark meat as well, but chicken breast strips tend to hold together slightly better.
