Simmered Soy Chicken Wraps Whether you use a slow-cooker or a Dutch oven, you just might want to double this recipe for seasoned, shredded chicken wrapped up to perfection in soft tortillas. The more you simmer the filling, the more melt-in-your-mouth tender it becomes. We love to use whole wheat tortillas, too. 3 to 4 boneless chicken breasts 2 large onions, chunked Small flour tortillas (pkg of ten), wheat or white (optional: cooked chopped broccoli) Sauce: ¼ cup soy sauce ¼ cup water 2 Tbl honey 1/8 tsp ginger 2 Tbl peach jam 1 Tbl cornstarch In a slow cooker, or a large pot on the stove, layer the onions and then the chicken breasts. Allow at least three hours in the slow cooker on medium, or at least one hour on the stove - the longer the better, but you don't have to do anything to it while it cooks. Spoon out the chicken onto a cutting board, and with a knife and fork, shred the chicken as finely as you'd like. In a small saucepan, stir all sauce ingredients together over medium heat until it starts bubbling, then let it simmer for five minutes on low heat to thicken. In a serving bowl, stir sauce and onions into chicken; if you'd like, add cooked chopped broccoli. Let your guests spoon the mixture into their own tortillas and wrap them up; eating by hand is encouraged! |
