I haven't posted in awhile because a.) school and work own my life b.) I'm trying to eat healthier, which is actually easier than I expected especially when I get to eat scrumptious meals like this one!
Lettuce Wraps
(copy cat PF Chang's, healthier version)
*Left out a few of the ingredients in the actual PF Chang's Lettuce Wraps but there's
PLENTY of taste in these for me, I didn't need the mushrooms, water chestnuts, & rice sticks
Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 chicken breast (4 oz)
- 1 egg (large grade A)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Soy Sauce (low sodium would be ideal but I used regular)
- Dash of Garlic Powder
- 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 packets of Splenda Sweetener (or whatever sweetener you choose)
- 3 Iceberg lettuce leafs (thats all!)
*Preheat oven to 375
1. Cut the chicken breast into small strips (I could cut mine into 8)
2. Season the chicken with salt and pepper (or any other chicken seasoning you prefer)
3. Place 1 egg in one bowl and 1/4 cup of flour in another. Dip each strip into the flour, then
into the egg, and back into the flour. Do this until the flour is gone.
4. Place strips onto a baking sheet and place in oven for about 15-20 or until done.
5. When chicken is almost done mix together all of the sauce ingredients (honey, soy sauce,
garlic powder, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and Splenda) in a small bowl.
Since the honey is thicker, I heated up the sauce for about 15 seconds.

6. When the chicken is done, place three leaves of iceberg lettuce on a plate. Cut the strips
into very small pieces and dip them in the sauce before placing them on the lettuce. Use
the leftover sauce to dip your wraps in!

(I only used 4 strips and placed the other 4 in the fridge for lunch the next day)
Ta-dah!
