- Prep Time: 20 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 35 minutes
- Servings: 4 wraps
- Skill Level: Easy
- 2 large, boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 gluten-free tortillas
- 1 cup shredded red cabbage
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 cup crushed peanuts (optional, for garnish)
For the Peanut Sauce:
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
- Warm water, as needed
- Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Grill or cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice sear. Let rest before slicing thinly.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare the peanut sauce by whisking the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes together in a bowl. Add warm water, a little at a time, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
- To assemble the wraps, lay the gluten-free tortillas flat. Spread a generous spoonful of peanut sauce across each tortilla.
- Layer the sliced chicken, shredded red cabbage, carrots, red bell pepper, and fresh cilantro in the center of each tortilla.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then tightly roll it up from the bottom to the top. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Slice the wraps in half and sprinkle with crushed peanuts for an extra crunch (optional).
- For an extra kick, add some sriracha or hot sauce to the peanut sauce.
- If you’re not a fan of certain veggies, feel free to substitute with your favorites like cucumber or lettuce.
- Make these wraps ahead of time and keep them in the fridge for up to 2 days for a quick meal option.
- Substitute almond butter for peanut butter if you have a peanut allergy.
These Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps pair wonderfully with a side of fresh fruit salad or a light cucumber salad. For drinks, a chilled coconut water or a sparkling lime soda would complement the flavors beautifully.
