Teriyaki Chicken Wraps
The shortcut here is a perfectly flavorful, preservative-free, store-bought teriyaki sauce. I used to believe solely in homemade teriyaki sauce, then I tried Soy Vay® Veri Veri Teriyaki Sauce, and my mind was changed. So of course, that is the teriyaki sauce of choice that I used here. I love that not only does it taste great but it’s made with real ingredients, so there’s no reason I wouldn’t want to use it! I know it will frequently be by finding a spot for quick weeknight dinners this summer for grilled teriyaki chicken and I’m thinking some kind of noodle teriyaki stir fry is sounding amazing. Another thing I like about this label of teriyaki sauce is that it comes in different variations as well like Low-Sodium and Hawaiian Teriyaki. I love it when I find a great product like this that makes those busy weeknights a little easier, without cutting out any flavor of course! You can find it in the Asian aisle at Walmart stores, usually near the Kikkoman soy sauce, rice vinegar.
Substitutions for Teriyaki Chicken Lettuce Wraps
If you aren’t into the lower-carb stuff and aren’t a big fan of lettuce wraps (often used as a substitute for flour tortillas), you can definitely just serve it over white or brown rice, or wrapped in a tortilla. It’s delicious both ways! And it’s packed with so much crunchy goodness – one of my favorite parts of a good lettuce wrap (here these include water chestnuts, tender-crisp bell peppers and carrots, ginger, cabbage, crunchy cashews, and crisp lettuce – bring on the crunch!). Some ways you can remix this Teriyaki Chicken mixture are:
Use an additional teaspoon of salt if you like it salty! Swap fresh ginger for a teaspoon ground ginger, and add red pepper flakes if you like that heat! Add garlic powder or garlic cloves Substitute a cup soy sauce for one you prefer For more crunch, consider red onion, red bell peppers, scallions, zucchini, or broccoli slaw
