It is easy to make a big batch of these wraps when preparing meals for the week.  You have a quick lunch or dinner and it packs well for work or school. - Emily Trierweiler (Lance Drive)

Ingredients:

• 1 - 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
• 1 can (8 ounces) water chestnuts, drained and diced
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium teriyaki sauce
• 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 cups shredded carrots
• 1/2 cup green onions, diced
• 12 large lettuce leaves
• 1/3 cup peanuts, toasted

In a large nonstick skillet, cook chicken in the oil for about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, water chestnuts, and ginger.  Cook 4-6 minutes longer or until chicken is no longer pink. Drain and set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. Stir in the carrots, onions, and chicken mixture.

Spoon onto lettuce leaves; sprinkle with peanuts. Fold sides of lettuce over filling and roll up.  Enjoy!
