    Lettuce wraps made with rotisserie chicken, colorful vegetables, and a flavorful Thai peanut sauce for a healthy no-cook meal.

    2 lettuce wraps on a plate with toppings in small bowls.

    When my plate is colorful and pretty looking, I think it actually tastes better too. They say you eat with your eyes first, so that make sense!

    Colorful veggies add a fun pop to these Thai Chicken lettuce wraps, the rotisserie chicken makes them quick and filling, and the peanut dressing is amazing!

    It's the same peanut sauce I use for my Rice Paper Rolls.

    Ingredients

    These Chicken Lettuce wraps come together quickly and make a great fresh lunch. I'm using rotisserie chicken, but if you have cooked shredded chicken or even shrimp would work too.

    Here's what I used:

    • Rotisserie Chicken
    • Lettuce
    • Colorful Vegetables
    • Peanut Sauce

    Another shortcut is to buy a bag of tri-color coleslaw. Then you don't need to chop anything up.

    The Peanut Sauce

    This is what will give flavor and creaminess to the lettuce wrap. I could eat this sauce everyday!

    It may seem like a lot of ingredients, but if you do a lot of Asian Cooking, most of these ingredients are staples.

    The outcome of the sauce can depend on the type of peanut butter you use. If you are using a natural peanut butter that is refrigerated, then you'll need to place it in a bowl and microwave for about 15 seconds or until it is easy to stir.

    The sauce will look like it's not coming together, but have faith and keep mixing it. You can also place all the ingredients of the sauce in a mini food chopper.

    Build the lettuce wraps using Butter or Bibb lettuce and top with some chopped peanuts for more crunch.

    • ¼ teaspoon Sesame Oil

    Lettuce Wraps:

    • 1 Head of Butter or Baby lettuce
    • 2 Cups Shredded Rotisserie Chicken
    • 1 Cup Shredded Carrots I used store bought
    • 1 Cup Shredded Purple Cabbage
    • 1 Cup Chopped Cucumbers
    • ¼ Cup Chopped Green Onions
    • ¼ Cup Cilantro Leaves
    • 1 Lime sliced for squeezing
    • Peanuts

    Instructions
     

    Peanut Dressing:

    • Warm Peanut Butter in the microwave for 15 seconds to make it easier to mix. Add all ingredients except for water. Mix well, then add 1 tablespoon of water at a time, and mix till desired consistency is reached.

    Assembly:

    • Place one or two leaves of washed lettuce, add shredded chicken, purple cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, green onion, and cilantro leaves.
      Squeeze a lime wedge on top, then drizzle peanut sauce, and top with chopped peanuts.

    Notes

    Natural peanut butter will require more mixing, especially if it's refrigerated. The sauce is going to look like it's not coming together, but keep mixing and add water if needed.
    Store leftovers and sauce separately up to 3 days.
