- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the firecracker sauce:
- ¼ cup hot chili sauce (like sriracha)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons vinegar (white or rice vinegar)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water (slurry for thickening)
For the wraps:
- 4 large tortillas or flatbreads
- 1 cup shredded lettuce or cabbage
- 1 carrot, julienned
- ½ cucumber, sliced into matchsticks
- ½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- Fresh cilantro or parsley leaves (optional)
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or yogurt-based sauce (optional spread)
- Sesame seeds or green onions (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
1. Prepare the firecracker sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together chili sauce, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and minced garlic.
- In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch and water to form a slurry.
2. Cook the chicken
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add sliced chicken and season with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and soy sauce.
- Cook for 6–8 minutes until fully cooked and lightly browned.
3. Add firecracker sauce
- Reduce heat to low and pour the sauce mixture over the cooked chicken.
- Stir to coat evenly and simmer for 2–3 minutes.
- Add cornstarch slurry and continue stirring until the sauce thickens and glazes the chicken.
4. Prepare the vegetables
- While chicken is cooking, wash and prepare your vegetables.
- Julienne or slice as desired and set aside for assembling the wraps.
5. Warm the tortillas
- Lightly heat tortillas in a dry pan or microwave for 10–15 seconds until pliable.
- This prevents tearing when rolling and enhances flavor.
6. Assemble the wraps
- Spread a thin layer of mayo or yogurt sauce on each tortilla (optional).
- Add a handful of shredded lettuce or cabbage.
- Layer sliced carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, and chicken.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds or herbs if desired.
7. Wrap and serve
- Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a wrap.
- Slice diagonally and serve immediately or wrap in foil for later.
