Description

Light and healthy wraps full of fresh veggies, chopped chicken, sliced almonds, and crispy wonton strips tossed in a unique Asian inspired dressing.


Ingredients

Scale

Dressing

  • 1/2 cup onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/8 teaspoon ginger

Wraps

  • 2 zucchini grated or julienned
  • 2 carrots grated or julienned
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/2 cup wonton strips
  • 4 leaves butter lettuce
  • 4 white or whole wheat flour tortillas

Instructions

Dressing

  1. In a medium saucepan, saute chopped onions and sugar together in butter. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the onions start to caramelize. Add minced garlic and continue cooking for one more minute.
  2. In a blender or mini food processor, pulse caramelized onions and garlic together with orange juice, honey, olive oil, and ginger.

Wraps

  1. In a large bowl, combine zucchini, carrots, chicken, almonds, and wontons. Toss with dressing until well coated. I only used about half of the dressing and saved the rest for another salad.
  2. Spoon the chicken veggie mixture into a lettuce leaf. You can either serve them this way, or place the lettuce with the chicken veggie salad onto a tortilla and wrap tightly. Using a sharp knife, slice them in half at an angle.
