Spicylicious, Skinny “Hot Wings” Lettuce Wraps
Ingredients
Ingredients for Condiments:
- ¼ cup Best Skinny Ranch Dressing or store-bought reduced-fat ranch dressing, see shopping tips
- 1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 8 Boston or Bibb lettuce leaves, washed and dried
Ingredients for Chicken:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or tenders, cut into small chunks
- Juice from 1 lemon
- ¼ cup hot wings sauce, I used Frank’s Red Hot sauce, see shopping tip
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare Best Skinny Ranch Dressing and refrigerate.
- Prep the cucumber, carrots, and lettuce. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- To make the chicken: Cut the chicken into small chunks. Add to a bowl and toss in lemon juice. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes. In a small bowl, mix together the hot sauce, honey and lime juice. Set aside.
- Coat a large nonstick pan with cooking spray. Heat the pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and lemon juice and saute, stirring often, for about 3-4 minutes until chicken is no longer pink. Stir in the hot sauce-honey mixture. Simmer until sauce reduces and thickens a bit, about 4-5 minutes. Refrigerate if serving later and reheat before serving.
- To assemble each wrap: Place ¼ cup chicken and a little sauce in each lettuce leaf. Add some cucumber, carrots, and drizzle with ½ tablespoon ranch dressing.
