Chicken and Vegetable Lettuce Bundles

Last Updated on June 19, 2020 by Sweet and Savoury Pursuits

Use leftover roast chicken to easily and quickly create a new dish by making these simple and delicious Chicken and Vegetable Lettuce Bundles.

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Chicken and Vegetable Lettuce BundlesWith the weather getting warmer I've been craving lighter meals with lots of crispy and refreshing vegetables.  Being short on time, I used some leftover roast chicken to make these delicious Chicken and Vegetable Lettuce Bundles.

Chicken and Vegetable Lettuce BundlesThis meal is easy and quick to put together. I like to serve it cold, and use leftover chicken straight from the refrigerator but you can warm up the chicken if you prefer it that way. Shred the amount of chicken you need.

Wash and slice your vegetables. I used carrots, cucumber, sweet red bell pepper and green onions. I like to use my mandolin to slice up the vegetables quickly. Add some fresh cilantro (you can leave it out if you don't like it) and some chopped peanuts. 

Pile all the vegetables up in little bundles on a large plate. Your guests can make their own bundles and choose the veggies they prefer. I like to serve these Chicken and Vegetable Lettuce Bundles with Hoisin sauce, but it's also delicious with the peanut butter dressing from this Asian Salad recipe.

If you make this recipe let me know how it went for you in the comment section below. I'd love to know if you made any variations to the recipe and how it worked out. And if you take a picture, share it with me on Instagram by tagging #sweetandsavourypursuits, I love to see your photos!

    Loved your post (short and sweet)! I love Boston Lettuce for all things wrapped. I eat a lot of lettuce wraps because I have celiac disease, but this looks like a great way to spice up my meals! I love your presentation as well. Have a wonderful weekend, and Happy Fiesta Friday! 😀
