Ginger-Peanut Chicken-Salad Wraps

 

I tried this on Saturday night and basically cannibalized it into something super!

I cut the chicken before cooking into bite size pieces, didn’t make it into a wrap, skipped the cucumber, cooked up the red pepper prior to the chicken and poured the sauce over the pepper and chicken and served it with rice! I was super yummy and received a once per week rating
