Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps.
Step 1
Start by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once it's hot, add the pulled rotisserie chicken, minced garlic, and ginger. Stir in the coleslaw mix and chopped basil, letting the vibrant colors and aromas fill your kitchen. Sprinkle in the sugar and season with black pepper to your liking.
Step 2
Next, pour in the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and white vinegar. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Let it cook for about 10 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through and the flavors meld beautifully, absorbing the delicious sauces.
Step 3
Now, it's time to serve! Line a large platter with the fresh green lettuce leaves. Spoon the warm chicken mixture into the center of the platter, creating a colorful and inviting display. Each guest can take a lettuce leaf, add a generous scoop of the chicken mixture, drizzle with the creamy peanut sauce, and roll it up into a delightful wrap. Enjoy the burst of flavors with every bite!
How to Serve
Serve the wraps with extra peanut sauce on the side for dipping, and perhaps some lime wedges for a zesty kick!
How to Store
Store any leftover chicken mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep the lettuce leaves separate to maintain their crispness.
