Ingredients:

For the Peanut Sauce:

• 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 3 tbsp PB2 (or 2 tbsp peanut butter)
• 1/2 tablespoon Sriracha chili sauce
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp soy sauce (use Tamari for gluten free)
• 1/2 tbsp freshly grated ginger
• 1 clove garlic, crushed

For the Chicken:

• cooking spray
• 16 oz ground chicken
• 1 tbsp Sriracha chili sauce (more or less to taste)
• 4 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tbsp soy sauce (use Tamari for gluten free)
• 3/4 cups shredded carrots
• 2/3 cup scallions, chopped
• 3/4 cup shredded red cabbage
• 2 tbsp chopped peanuts
• cilantro leaves, for garnish
• 4 lime wedges
• 8 iceberg lettuces outer leaves

Directions:

Make the peanut sauce; in a small saucepan combine chicken broth, PB2, 1/2 tablespoon sriracha, honey, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon fresh ginger, and 1 clove crushed garlic and simmer over medium-low heat stirring occasionally until sauce becomes smooth and thickens, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over high medium until hot. When hot, spray with oil and sauté the chicken until cooked through and browned, breaking it up as it cooks; add the sriracha, remaining garlic and ginger and saute 1 minute. Add the tablespoon of soy sauce, cook 1 minute.

Add the shredded carrots, and 1/2 cup of the scallions and sauté until tender crisp, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.

Divide the chicken equally between 8 lettuce leaves, top each with shredded cabbage, remaining scallions, drizzle with peanut sauce, chopped peanuts and cilantro, for garnish and serve with lime wedges.
