Slow Cooker Chicken Lettuce Wraps image

My kids love this meal! The diced ingredients get rid of the textural issue they normally have with vegetables, while still being packed with flavor and nutrition! This recipe is very forgiving; I've made the chicken on the side for vegetarians, substituted cashews for peanuts, and used more or less of an ingredient depending on what I have in the fridge.

Provided by Anthony Ashmore

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 package chicken tender
1 ½ tablespoons dried adobo seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons peanut butter
4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons cream of coconut, (not coconut milk)
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon pineapple teriyaki sauce
4 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons ginger, minced
2 tablespoons scallions, minced
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
1 cup honey-roasted peanuts, crushed
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1 package butter lettuce
1 tablespoon leftover marinade
1 teaspoon scallions, chopped
1 teaspoon sweetened coconut
1 teaspoon cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • In a clean Tupperware, season each chicken tender with adobo, salt and pepper.
  • Next, in a measuring cup, mix all of the wet ingredients together and whisk until a cohesive marinade is formed.
  • Pour the majority of the marinade over the chicken tenders, leaving approximately 3-4 tablespoons of marinade left over, to serve as dressing for finished lettuce wrap.
  • Allow chicken to marinate for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Lightly brush a baking sheet with 1 tbsp of sesame oil. Place each chicken tender down on the baking sheet, approximately ½ inch to 1 inch apart from one another. Bake in oven for 20-25 minutes at 425 °F or until the top of the chicken appears golden brown.
  • Once the chicken is baked, allow the tenders to sit for 5-10 minutes.
  • Once cooled, lay your tenders down on large segments of butter lettuce and top with your leftover marinade, leftover herbs and leftover sweetened coconut.
  • Wrap like a burrito and enjoy.

Tips:

  • For a thicker sauce, add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the chicken mixture before cooking.
  • To make the wraps ahead of time, assemble them without the lettuce and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, wrap them in lettuce leaves and enjoy!
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can make this recipe in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Just be sure to stir the chicken mixture frequently so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
  • Serve the lettuce wraps with your favorite toppings, such as chopped peanuts, cilantro, and lime wedges.
  • This recipe is also great for meal prep. Simply cook the chicken mixture ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the chicken mixture and assemble the wraps.

Conclusion:

This crockpot peanut Thai chicken lettuce wraps recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy a healthy and flavorful meal.
