These filling and hearty wraps can be made as a fun and creative lunch in under 20 minutes. All you have to do is cook down some coleslaw mix, scallions, and red pepper flakes to let the cabbage soften a little. Add the cooked chicken so it can heat through, then stir in dry roasted peanuts, chopped basil, and fresh mint. A simple dressing of lime juice, sesame oil, and soy sauce really ties the rest of the ingredients together. Feel free to use this quick dressing recipe for any type of Asian-inspired sandwich or salad that you may make in the future.
