Method
 

Make the Peanut Sauce

Prepare the Chicken
  1. Shred or slice cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Combine the chicken with half of the prepared peanut sauce, ensuring it's evenly coated. Set aside the remaining sauce.
Prep the Vegetables
  1. Wash and slice the vegetables. Grate carrots, slice red bell pepper, chop red cabbage, and cut green onions. Arrange on a platter.
Warm the Tortillas
  1. Warm flour tortillas in a skillet over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side for easier rolling.
Assemble the Wraps

Roll the Wraps
  1. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom to the top. Slice in half for a beautiful presentation.
