ingredients

3 leaves lettuce (romaine, butter, or green leaf lettuce)
3 ounces chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, raw, cubed
³⁄₄ cup cucumber, peeled & diced
2 scallions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons carrots, shredded

¹⁄₈ teaspoon garlic powder
1 dash red pepper flakes (to taste)

directions

In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, scallions, carrot shreds, rice vinegar, cilantro, and red pepper flakes. Mix well and refrigerate until you're ready to assemble your cups.
Bring a pan misted with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. Add chicken and sprinkle with garlic powder. Cook chicken, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 4 minutes.
Place chicken and peanut dressing or sauce in a bowl and toss to coat. Remove veggie mixture from the fridge.
To assemble, evenly distribute the veggie mixture and the chicken among the lettuce "cups." If you like, finish with a squirt of lime juice and/or a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Chomp chomp!

Great recipe, very tasty. I didn't have any cilantro, and used green onions in place of the scallions. So good, only wish I could save the leftovers, but I know my hubby will gobble them up when he gets home in 15 minutes!
