  • SERVINGS

    6

 

1/2
cup uncooked brown rice
2
teaspoons dark sesame oil
4
green onions, sliced
1/4
lb snow peas, trimmed
1
cup finely shredded cabbage
1
cup shredded carrot
2
tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2
teaspoons grated gingerroot
6
whole wheat tortillas (10- to 12-inch diameter)
6
tablespoons hoisin sauce
2
cup shredded cooked chicken breast
  • 1 Cook rice according to package directions; set aside.
  • 2 Meanwhile, in medium nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add green onions; cook and stir 1 minute or until wilted. Stir green onions into cooked rice.
  • 3 Fill 2-quart saucepan half full of water; heat to boiling. Add snow peas and cook 30 seconds. Drain and rinse with cold water until cool. Pat dry and cut lengthwise into thin strips. In medium bowl, stir together snow peas, cabbage, carrot, rice vinegar and gingerroot.
  • 4 To assemble wraps, lay tortillas on work surface. Spread each with 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce. Place one-sixth of the chicken in a strip along the bottom of each tortilla, 1 inch from edge. Divide rice and vegetable mixtures evenly over chicken. Fold over bottom edge of each tortilla to cover filling. Fold sides in and continue to roll up tightly, burrito style. Cut each in half crosswise with a serrated knife to serve.

However before I try this recipe I need to know if dark sesame oil is the same as toasted sesame oil which has a very strong flavor. If so, 2 tsp. seems a bit much. I'll be back with a real review after we actually try this :)

We really liked this! We tried diff. sauces on some of the wraps like plum sauce in place of the hoisin. Yummy

This was a great recipe-everyone in my house loved them. The only thing I did differently, was I cooked the cabbage a bit, because my kids don't like raw cabbage. Yummy!
