Thai Chicken Wraps

Chicken - its whats for dinner! I really like this recipe because its quick and tasty. I know that this is supposed to be a baking blog, but a girl's gotta eat too right?! That, and I need something to pack for lunch tomorrow because hospital cafeteria food is so gosh darn unhealthy.


Ingredients


8 flour tortillas (8 inches)
2 lbs skinless, boneless chicken thighs or breasts
3 tsp garlic salt
3 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 package of vegetable stir fry mix (serves 4)
2 minced garlic cloves
5 tablespoons crushed peanuts
1 tablespoon cilantro

Peanut sauce
1/4 cup + 3 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2.5 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons water
1.5 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 minced garlic cloves

Method

1. Assemble the ingredients.




2. Wash the chicken and cut it into strips about 1/2" thick by 1" long. Add the garlic salt and pepper and toss until thoroughly mixed. In a large skillet, put 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in and began frying the chicken on low heat until fully cooked.


3. Wash the packaged vegetable stir fry. Add the 2 minced garlic cloves to the vegetable stir fry and cook on low heat, stirring frequently under the vegetables are tender.



4. In a small sauce pan, combine the ingredients for the peanut sauce and cook on low heat, stirring constantly until completely mixed.


5. Now assemble everything. Spoon some peanut sauce onto the tortilla and add the vegetables and chicken. Top with crushed peanuts and cilantro and enjoy! :)

  1. Bastardized Do Wraps were very good, I bet they would be much better if I weren't such a kitchen screwup.
