Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken dry and marinate with 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, garlic powder, ground ginger, and chili flakes (if using) for 10-15 minutes at room temp or up to 2 hours in the fridge.
  2. Whisk together peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add warm water until the sauce reaches a drizzly consistency.
  3. Combine green cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, red bell pepper, scallions, and cilantro in a bowl. Whisk lime juice, rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, then toss with the slaw and let sit.
  4. Heat a skillet on medium-high and cook the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until browned and cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
  5. Warm the tortillas, layer peanut sauce, a handful of slaw, and sliced chicken. Garnish with cilantro and peanuts. Roll and serve immediately or wrap for later.
