    • 📋 Honey Sriracha Chicken Lettuce Wrap Recipe
    • 🍽 More Weight Watchers Chicken Recipes!

    🥘Ingredients

    For this easy honey sriracha chicken wrap recipe, you'll need:

    • olive oil
    • boneless chicken breasts
    • shredded carrots
    • green onions
    • honey
    • garlic
    • soy sauce
    • sriracha hot sauce
    • vermicelli noodles
    • lettuce leaves

    *See recipe card for quantities

    📋Variations & Substitutions

    • Hot Sauce- you can use a sweet Thai chili sauce to change it up!
    • Chicken - you can use chicken breast, chicken thighs, chicken tenders or leftover chicken
    • Noodles -you can use vermicelli, angel hair, egg noodles or ramen noodle - whatever you have on hand!
    • Lettuce - I use green leaf lettuce but you can use bibb lettuce, even head lettuce, butter lettuce or whatever kind of lettuce you prefer (using a smaller variety of lettuce with smaller leaves will result in something more like a lettuce cup)
    • Spicy - if you like spicier - add more sriracha! The spiciness of this dish is dictated by the spiciness of the sriracha (how much you add).
    • Onions - you can substitute red onions for the green onions
    • Carrots - you can grate them (use fresh or frozen - see Top Tip) or use matchstick carrots
    • Oil- you could use sesame oil, canola oil or another type of oil besides olive oil
    • Sweetener -if you don't have honey, you can substitute agave (use half the amount) or maple syrup (use the same amount)

    💭Top Tip

    I shred a lot of carrots at once in my food processor (affiliate link). If you have a 13+ cup food processor, you can shred a 2 lb bag of carrots at one time without emptying the bowl. Then I freeze them in 2 cup bags. When I go to make this these sriracha chicken lettuce wraps (I always double it because my family loves it that much) I just defrost the carrots in the microwave, drain them and throw them in! I use the rest of the frozen shredded carrots for my Healthy Carrot Bread, Award-Winning Creamy Carrot Soup and Healthy Carrot Muffins with Pineapple.

    🌡️Storage

    • The chicken can be stored with the sauce in and airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Keep the noodles and lettuce stored in a separate containers in the fridge. * You can store the noodles for a short time in the sauce, but after 24 hours they absorb the sauce and swell up.
    • This chicken noodle mixture freezes well for up to 3 months, if you freeze it shortly after making it (before the noodles absorb the sauce and swell).

    🍽Equipment

    🔢WW Points

    This Honey Sriracha Chicken recipe is Weight Watchers friendly @ 4 WW points on my plan. You can click HERE to find out how many points they are on your personal plan!

    🦺Food Safety

    • Cook chicken to a minimum temperature of 165 °F (74 °C) . Temperature is the very best way to check for doneness. I use this instant read thermometer- (affiliate link) it's great for everything food related!
    • Do not use the same utensils on cooked food, that previously touched the raw meat
    • Wash hands after touching raw meat
    • Don't leave food sitting out at room temperature for extended periods
    • Never leave cooking food unattended

      I changed this recipe up just a little and used Sweet Thai Chili sauce instead.....it was fantastic. I think the only thing I would change when I'm making it next time is to add the carrots later so they keep a bit of the crisp and I would bake the chicken to get it just a little crispy. Great recipe though. Quick easy dinner, just the way I like it.
