🥘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).

🦺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
