  3. 1-2 chicken breast
    1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
    montreal steak seasoning
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1/2 red bell pepper, cubed
    1/2 yellow bell pepper, cubed
    1 cup shredded cabbage
    1 cup shredded carrots (can buy bag of cabbage and carrot mix if prefer)
    green onions
    1-2 tablespoons minced ginger root
    1/2 english (seedless) cucumber, chopped
    1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
    head of romaine lettuce
    2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

    thinly slice the chicken into strips or cubes and marinate in soy sauce for 30 minutes (i marinate overnight in the frig). before cooking, sprinkle with montreal steak (or some other) seasoning.

    add olive oil to skillet, then chicken. cook chicken 2 minutes or so, moving around pan. add garlic, peppers, cabbage, shredded carrots, green onions and ginger. stir-fry another 2 minutes or so. add teriyaki sauce to glaze the mixture and remove from heat. transfer cooked chicken and vegetables to a bowl. allow to cool.

    heat creamy peanut butter in microwave until syrupy. place spoonfuls of chicken into a piece of romaine lettuce with diced cucumber and wrap lettuce like a burrito. drizzle peanut butter over top or use to dip.
