Ingredients
Protein
- 2 grilled chicken breasts
Vegetables and Herbs
- 2 cups shredded green cabbage
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
Dressing and Marinade
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon honey (natural)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (natural)
Wrap and Toppings
- 4 soft flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup crushed peanuts
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Season chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), a drizzle of sesame oil, and a pinch of salt. Grill or pan-sear over medium heat until cooked through and lightly charred, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let the chicken rest before slicing thinly.
- Toss together the Asian slaw: Shred the green cabbage and grate the carrots finely. Thinly slice the red bell pepper and green onions, and chop fresh cilantro. Combine all these vegetables in a large bowl. Whisk together apple cider vinegar (natural), rice vinegar (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), honey (natural), and a little sesame oil to create the dressing. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss well to coat evenly.
- Assemble the wraps: Warm the flour tortillas until pliable. Place a generous handful of the crunchy Asian slaw onto each tortilla, add sliced grilled chicken on top, then sprinkle with crushed peanuts. Roll the wraps tightly and slice diagonally for an attractive presentation.
Notes
- Grill chicken with skin-on to help retain juiciness and add extra flavor.
- Slice vegetables thinly to ensure the slaw is easy to bite and mixes well with other ingredients.
- Make the dressing ahead of time to allow flavors to meld beautifully before tossing with the slaw.
- Use fresh herbs like cilantro and green onions to elevate the flavor beyond dried alternatives.
- Secure your wraps with a toothpick if needed to hold everything in place for easier eating.
