Asian Chicken & Rice Noodle Lettuce Wraps. A delicious, light and healthy summer meal or appetizer! These are SO good!

Let start with the fact that I probably ate way to many of there AMAZING Asian Chicken & Rice Noodle Lettuce Wraps. I know, I’ve been on a bit of an Asian- inspired recipe kick lately and yes it has a huge amount to do with the fact that I finally found a basic Asian sauce that is so versatile and so good! These lettuce wraps are great as a summer appetizer or as a light and healthy meal.

They cook up super quickly and they have a great texture to them. These noodles work so perfectly in these Asian Chicken & Rice Noodle Lettuce Wraps! The simple Asian sauce is really a great combo of a little sweet and a little salty. I used ground chicken because its lean and light in flavor so the flavor of the sauce really stands out.

NOTE: This recipe makes a lot of noodles and chicken but I did turn it into TWO meals! The first being the lettuce wraps and the next day I steamed some broccoli and tossed it with the extra noodles and ground chicken for a tasty and super fast meal!

Perfection!I used a head of bib lettuce as the base then added a little of the rice noodle, the ground chicken then shredded carrot, thinly sliced cucumber and finished the wraps with cilantro. I know, I know… you either love or hate cilantro. I happen to LOVE it and always add extra for myself. If you hate it, leave it out and they’ll still be awesome!
