I found the best recipe at SparkPeople, fixed it for dinner tonight, and just had to share it with you. This is so different and so tasty. I know I'll be making it again and again. Enjoy! Per the poster, this recipe came from Cooking Light magazine.

Thai Chicken Wraps

1 t. canola oil
1 t. Asian dark sesame oil
4 c. coleslaw mix
1 bunch scallions, sliced
1/4 t. red pepper flakes
2 c. finely chopped cooked chicken
2 T. chopped unsalted dry roasted peanuts
juice of 1/2 lime
2 t. low sodium soy sauce
1/4 c. chopped fresh basil
iceberg lettuce leaves

Heat the canola oil and sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the coleslaw mix, scallions, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cabbage begins to wilt, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the chicken, peanuts, lime juice, and soy sauce. Cook, stirring frequently, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the basil.

Top the lettuce with the chicken mixture and roll up.
