Chicken Lettuce Wraps with Peanut-Miso Sauce


Peanut-Miso Sauce

1/3 cup reduced-fat peanut butter
1/4c honey
3 tbsp miso (soybean paste)
2 tbsp water
2 tsp fresh lime juice
1/8tsp ground red pepper

Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Cooking spray
1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
12 romaine lettuce leaves
2c (2-inch) julienne-cut carrot
2c (2-inch) julienne-cut peeled jicama
1c (2-inch) julienne-cut seeded peeled cucumber
1c fresh bean sprouts
1c shredded red cabbage

Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl, stir well with a whisk then set aside. Heat a large skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Cut the chicken into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Cut off the raised portion of the main vein of each lettuce leaf. Divide chicken evenly among the lettuce leaves. Top with carrot, jicama, cucumber, bean sprouts, and cabbage, dividing evenly. Roll up, and secure with a pick. Serve with sauce. These are similar to summer rolls, but lettuce leaves are used in place of rice paper wrappers.
