Thai Chicken Crunch Wrap

Thai Chicken Crunch Wrap
Submitted by: Ash
4/5 star



Makes: 2-3 wraps (We were able to make 6 smaller ones total so we could have leftovers for lunch and we still felt like each wrap was well loaded.)
The cucumbers (i.e. quick pickles) can be made several days in advance. All the other ingredients can be prepped ahead of time, too, making this a super easy throw-together lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 english cucumber, halved and cut into thin ribbons
  • 1/3 cup light mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet Thai chili sauce
  • 2-3 burrito-sized tortillas (white, wheat, spinach, or whatever you prefer. We love the unbaked tortillas so that's what we used)
  • 4 leaves romaine or green lettuce
  • 1-2 cups cooked, sliced chicken or turkey
  • 3/4 cup thinly sliced or julienned carrots (1-2 large carrots)
  • 1/2 cup packed cilantro leaves
Directions
  1. In a pie plate or other shallow dish, whisk together the vinegar, sugar and salt. Add the cucumbers, tossing to cover with the liquid. Let them stand for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients (they can be made several days in advance and covered in the refrigerator).
  2. In a small bowl, combine the mayo and chili sauce. Spread a couple tablespoons evenly on the tortillas. Top with lettuce, chicken, cucumbers (lightly patting dry, if needed), carrots and cilantro (just eyeball the amounts for each tortilla depending on how many wraps you are making). Roll the tortilla up tightly like a burrito so the ends are enclosed. Serve immediately.
