Easy Thai Lettuce Wraps
For an easy, low-calorie Asian-inspired meal, try our easy Thai lettuce wraps with chicken and rice noodles.
Keep it simple by using leftover chicken or even a rotisserie chicken from your local supermarket.
The marinade dressing is a cinch to make. Soy sauce, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes, lime juice, garlic, and a little brown sugar mixed together creates a delicious combination of spicy and sweet.
We wrapped our chicken, noodles, and carrots in bibb lettuce for a creamy flavor and crunchy texture and topped it off with some cilantro.
Thai lettuce wraps are simple to put together and make a healthy mid-week dinner or party appetizer.
