  • 4 large flour tortillas or flatbreads

Instructions

  1. Marinate chicken: Mix soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, garlic powder, ginger, and chili flakes. Add chicken, toss, and marinate 20 minutes to 4 hours.
  2. Make peanut sauce: Combine peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Whisk smooth, thin with warm water to desired consistency.
  3. Prepare slaw: Toss green/red cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, scallions, cilantro with lime juice, rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let sit 10 minutes.
  4. Cook chicken: Heat grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat, cook chicken 5–7 minutes per side until done. Rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
  5. Assemble wraps: Warm tortillas, spread peanut sauce, layer slaw, add sliced chicken, drizzle more sauce, garnish with cilantro/peanuts. Fold or roll tightly. Serve.

Notes

  • Marinate longer for more flavor and tenderness.
  • Optional: use shredded chicken instead of sliced.
  • Use low-carb or gluten-free tortillas if preferred.
