Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup of creamy peanut butter, ¼ cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon of grated ginger. Whisk together until smooth.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, take 2 cups of cooked chicken and pour half of the prepared peanut sauce over it. Fold the sauce into the chicken until evenly coated.
  3. Lay out 4 large lettuce leaves on a clean surface. Spoon an equal portion of the sauced chicken mixture onto the center of each leaf.
  4. Top the chicken mixture with 1 cup of shredded carrots and 1 cup of sliced bell peppers. Sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro if using, and drizzle a little extra peanut sauce on top.
  5. Fold the sides of the lettuce leaves over the filling, then roll from the base towards the tip, ensuring a tight roll.
  6. Serve the wraps seam-side down on a platter, and serve immediately with extra peanut sauce on the side.
