2 tablespoons honey
1 cup shredded carrots
1/3 cup sliced almonds
12 leaves of Boston Bibb or butter lettuce leaves
Rinse whole lettuce leaves and pat dry. Add 2 teaspoons oil to a large
skillet over medium heat, then sautee the chicken until cooked
thoroughly, about seven to 10 minutes. In a medium bowl, whisk together
remaining oil, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce and honey until thoroughly
mixed. Add chicken, carrots and almonds. To serve, allow guests to
scoop chicken mixture onto a lettuce leaf. Wrap the lettuce around the
meat like a burrito.
