Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients
  

For the Spicy Peanut Sauce:

For the wrap:

  • 3 cups cooked diced chicken (about 3 large chicken breasts or 1lb)
  • 4 large whole-grain tortillas use gluten-free, if necessary
  • 6 cups loosely packed fresh spinach leaves
  • 4 green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 medium carrots “ribboned” using a vegetable peeler
  • 1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves

Instructions

  • Combine the ingredients for the spicy peanut sauce in a large mixing bowl and whisk until smooth. Add additional water to thin out the sauce if it’s too thick. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Add the chicken to the bowl and toss until all of the chicken chunks are evenly coated with the sauce. Alternatively, you can drizzle the sauce over the wrap fillings once the wraps are assembled.
  • Place each of the wraps on a flat surface.
  • Divide the spinach between all of the wraps, covering evenly. Next, lay out the carrot ribbons and chicken mixture in strips across the wrap.
  • Evenly distribute the green onions and cilantro on top of the other fillings.
  • Once everything is divided between the wraps, roll them up, as tightly as possible. Cut them in half on the diagonal, and skewer each half with a toothpick to prevent wraps from unraveling.

Notes

  • You can prepare the chicken using any method. These wraps are great with grilled chicken, baked chicken, or chicken cooked in an air fryer. You can even use store-bought rotisserie chicken to make things easier.
  • To get more flavor in the lean meat, toss it in the peanut sauce before adding it to the top of the tortilla.
  • Instead of assembling the wraps all at once, store the ingredients in separate containers and make each wrap fresh. 
  •  If you prefer really spicy food, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the peanut sauce too.
  • Use low carb wraps instead of flour tortillas to make this recipe a lower carb option.
