Method
 

Steps to Prepare
  1. In a bowl, whisk together ½ cup of sweet chili sauce, 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add 1 pound of sliced chicken and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine ⅓ cup of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons of sweet chili sauce and the remaining tablespoon of lime juice. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes until no longer pink.
  4. Pour any remaining marinade into the skillet with the chicken. Let it simmer on medium heat for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  5. Warm the tortillas by microwaving them for 20-30 seconds or in a dry skillet for 15 seconds on each side.
  6. Spread a layer of the creamy sauce over each tortilla, then layer with shredded lettuce, cabbage, grated carrot, matchstick cucumbers, and finally, glazed chicken.
  7. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it tightly from the bottom up. Enjoy your delightful creation!
