Keto Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps Cooking Tips
- Keep it Lean: Opt for ground chicken breast to keep these wraps extra lean and protein-packed.
- Don’t Skip the Grating: Grating the carrots ensures they blend seamlessly into the mixture, adding natural sweetness and a pop of color.
- Adjust the Heat: If you prefer a milder flavor, you can reduce the amount of sriracha sauce or omit the chili flakes altogether. Conversely, for those who love an extra kick, feel free to amp up the heat!

Love these wraps. I don’t really eat wraps to avoid carbs, I just enjoy the lighter flavor and freshness of lettuce. These came together in minutes, I used tortilla for my boys and they loved it.
