These restaurant-inspired Asian chicken wraps are filled with vegetables, protein and drenched with a slightly spicy, creamy peanut sauce.
A few years ago, I was working at this restaurant in Green Bay and they added these amazing Asian chicken wraps to their menu. They had a delicious peanut-y sauce that was just spicy enough to burn a little. I ate them everyday for lunch when I worked and I would sometimes get one to go before I left at night. I loved those chicken wraps. Unfortunately, my husband and I moved to Wichita at the end of that summer, so no more chicken wraps for me. It turns out that they don’t even have it on their menu anymore anyway – I checked when I was home last.
So here’s a recipe for amazing Asian chicken wraps with peanut sauce that pretty much kicks those other chicken wraps’ butts.
