If you’ve ever eaten at PF Changs and fallen in love with their chicken lettuce wraps, this meal is for you! We haven’t eaten there in years but I crave these all the time so I decided to make my own version, cleaned up a bit! Not only is this recipe easy to create at home, its much healthier and we all agree it taste even better!
If you are a master in the kitchen you could easily have this meal on the table in less than 20 minutes! I put my kids to work slicing and dicing and it was done in 15! Its packed full of protein, flavor and makes a perfect addition to your weekly meal prep. Double the batch and have lunch leftovers all week long! Enjoy!
