Cashew & Curry Chicken Wraps

This flavorful chicken not only taste fantastical, it’s super healthful too!

With these wraps, you could use tortillas, whole wheat tortillas or lettuce cups. (I recently noticed my grocery store had new ‘lettuce wrap’ lettuce available…already pulled apart and neatly nested together for you.) This recipe calls for rotisserie chicken, but you could use slow cooked, shredded chicken as the base too. Let it soak in the green curry sauce (red curry paste would work too) and then warm it all up and let the flavors mingle and drill into the chicken, then assemble your wraps with some slaw and cashews.

You can see how flexible and adaptable these chicken wraps are! And they are super delicious too!! Enjoy!
