Celebrate National BBQ day with these BBQ pulled chicken lettuce wraps! Our BBQ pulled chicken is made from shredding our homemade rotisserie chicken and combining it with our homemade bbq sauce.
This dish quickly transforms into a vibrant meal. The contrast between the smoky, sweet sauce and the cool, crisp crunch of the Persian cucumbers and carrots is excellent.
The garlic herb drizzle adds a bright and savory taste to cut through the richness.Ingredients:
La Bella Romana BBQ pulled chicken
1 head of Boston lettuce (also known as Butter lettuce)
1 bag Matchstick carrots
1 Small red onion (sliced)
2–3 Persian cucumbers (julienned)
Cilantro (finely chopped with stems, about half a bunch)
Heinz Garlic-Herb Sauce
Instructions: The Base: Use two leaves of Boston lettuce per wrap for extra stability. They are buttery and soft but can be delicate.
The Warmth: Warm according to directions on containers. Place your warmed BBQ pulled chicken in the center. Don't overfill, or the wrap won't fold.
The Slaw: In a bowl, combine the carrots, cucumbers, onions, cilantro, and a little bit of the garlic and herb sauce (just enough to coat) mix to create a slaw and layer on top of chicken
The Finish: Drizzle a bit more of Garlic Herb sauce over the top and garnish with an extra sprig of rosemary if you're feeling fancy
Pro-Tips
Side Dish: These pair beautifully with a charred corn salad or a simpletangy coleslaw.
Low-Carb Boost: If you want extra heartiness without a bun, you can add a few slices of avocado to the wrap.
Heat: If you like a kick, a few pickled jalapeños or a dash of hotsauce works wonders with the garlic and herb profile
