# What You Need:

→ Meat

01 - 2 medium chicken breasts (about 10.5 oz), cut into thin strips

→ Marinade & Sauce

02 - 3 tbsp sweet chili sauce
03 - 1 tbsp soy sauce
04 - 1 clove garlic, minced
05 - 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated

→ Vegetables

06 - 1 cup shredded lettuce

→ Wraps & Garnishes

11 - 4 large flour tortillas
12 - 2 tbsp mayonnaise (optional)
13 - Fresh cilantro leaves (optional)
14 - Lime wedges, to serve

# Directions:

01 - In a bowl, toss the chicken strips with sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
02 - Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove from heat.
03 - Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
04 - Lay out each tortilla. If desired, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise down the center. Place a quarter of the cooked chicken on each tortilla. Top with lettuce, carrot, bell pepper, spring onions, and cucumber.
05 - Garnish with cilantro leaves. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the filling if desired. Roll up the wraps tightly, folding in the sides as you go. Slice in half and serve immediately.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The balance of sweet heat from the chili sauce against fresh vegetables makes every bite interesting
  • Everything happens in one pan and comes together faster than delivery would arrive
02 -
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken or it will steam instead of getting that golden glaze
  • The wraps taste best assembled right before serving because the sauce can make the tortillas soggy if they sit too long
03 -
  • Grate the ginger directly into the marinade bowl to catch all the juices
  • Pat the chicken strips dry before marinating if they are too wet from packaging
