How to Make Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar or honey
  • 2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 Tbsp minced ginger
  • 1 tsp sriracha sauce
  • 1-2 Tbsp water (optional)
  • 2 chicken breasts, cooked and chopped
  • 3 cups coleslaw mix
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup roasted, salted peanuts
  • 4-6 tortillas

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, brown sugar or honey, rice wine vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sriracha sauce. If you want a thinner sauce, add water a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the chopped chicken, coleslaw mix, grated carrot (if using), chopped cilantro, and peanuts. Drizzle the peanut sauce over the mixture and toss everything to combine. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.
  3. To prepare the tortillas, heat them in the microwave for about 30 seconds. This will make it easier to roll them without tearing.
  4. Divide the chicken and veggie mixture evenly among the tortillas. Wrap them tightly and serve immediately.

How to Serve Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps

Serve the wraps fresh with extra peanut sauce on the side for dipping. You can add some lime wedges for a zesty touch. These wraps make great appetizers for parties or light lunches.

How to Store Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps

If you have leftovers, store the filling in a separate container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Wraps can be made ahead of time but are best eaten fresh.

Tips to Make Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps

  • For extra crunch, consider adding sliced bell peppers or cucumber to the filling.
  • You can use grilled chicken or rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • Adjust the spice level by adding more or less sriracha sauce based on your preference.

Variation

Feel free to change up the protein in this recipe. Tofu or shrimp can be used in place of chicken for a different twist.

Hi, I’m Savannah Brooks, 35 years old, born in Charleston, South Carolina, and now living in Seattle, Washington. My kitchen is small but full of life shelves stacked with spices from all over the world, a sourdough starter that feels like part of the family, and usually a pot bubbling away with something hearty and comforting.

Food has always been the center of my world. Growing up in Charleston, I was surrounded by Southern cooking shrimp and grits, okra stews, biscuits that could melt in your mouth. My grandmother was the first person who showed me that recipes are more than instructions they’re stories passed from one hand to another. I still keep her stained recipe cards in a box, though I’ve long since memorized every one.

My path wasn’t traditional. I studied journalism first, thinking I’d write stories for a living. And I do but now I write them on the plate. After years of working late nights in small cafés, catering weddings, and even running a food truck, I found my true rhythm in cooking that bridges my Southern roots with global inspiration. These days, you’ll find me folding lemongrass into chicken soup, adding harissa to cornbread batter, or topping fried green tomatoes with a touch of miso.

I don’t believe cooking is about perfection it’s about connection. My kitchen is a place for experiments, happy accidents, and plenty of laughter. I’ve burned cookies, curdled sauces, and dropped more than one cake. But every mistake taught me something, and every shared meal reminded me why I love this work.

I cook for people who want food that feels like home but isn’t afraid to wander a little. My hope is that when someone takes a bite of my food, they feel cared for, seen, and maybe a little inspired to try something new in their own kitchen.

So, welcome to my world where Southern comfort meets global curiosity, and every dish tells a story.
