Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup cucumber, julienned

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1 cup fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped

4 large whole wheat or spinach tortillas

1/2 cup chopped peanuts for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peanut Dressing: In a medium bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, soy sauce, honey or maple syrup, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Whisk thoroughly until smooth and uniform. If the dressing is too thick for your liking, add a splash of warm water, stirring until you achieve your desired consistency.

    Mix the Salad Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced red bell pepper, shredded carrots, julienned cucumber, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped cilantro. Use a gentle motion to toss and mix the ingredients, ensuring they are well distributed.

      Incorporate the Dressing: Drizzle the prepared peanut dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Using a spatula, fold the dressing into the salad mixture carefully until all ingredients are evenly coated, creating a delicious harmony of flavors.

        Assemble the Wraps: Place a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken salad mixture into the center, being careful not to overfill to ensure easy wrapping.

          Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward towards the center, covering the filling. Begin rolling from the bottom upward, tucking the filling as you go to create a tight wrap. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and chicken salad.

            Serve and Enjoy: Slice each wrap in half diagonally and elegantly arrange them on a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts for a delightful crunch. Serve alongside lime wedges to add a refreshing zesty kick.
