Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (or breast)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1–2 tbsp warm water (to thin sauce)
  • 2 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1 cup julienned carrots
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • Salt to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas or flatbreads (low-carb/gluten-free optional)
  • Extra cilantro and chopped peanuts for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, garlic powder, ginger, and chili flakes. Add chicken and marinate 20 min at room temp or up to 4 hours in fridge.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Add warm water until pourable.
  3. In a large bowl, toss green cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, scallions, and cilantro. Add lime juice, rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let sit 10 min.
  4. Heat skillet over medium-high heat with oil. Cook chicken 5–7 min per side until cooked through and browned. Rest 5 min, then slice thinly.
  5. Warm tortillas. Spread peanut sauce on each, layer slaw, sliced chicken, drizzle more sauce, and garnish with cilantro and peanuts.
  6. Fold or roll tortillas. Slice in half to serve.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken longer for more flavor and tenderness.
  • Shredded rotisserie chicken can be used as a shortcut.
  • Optional toppings like chopped peanuts or extra cilantro enhance flavor and texture.
