Peking Chicken Wraps Recipes

PEKING STYLE CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, chili peppers (if using) and vinegar. Blend thoroughly and set aside.
• Coat chicken pieces in cornstarch. Dip into beaten egg whites.
• Saute the chicken in hot oil until crispy and brown.
• Drain oil from the pan and add sauce.
• Cook for 5 minutes over low heat.

HOISIN WRAPS

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. Mix the turkey or chicken with half of the hoisin sauce so that it's coated, then spread out onto an ovenproof dish and grill until sizzling. Warm the tortillas under the grill or according to pack instructions.
• Spread the tortillas with the rest of the hoisin sauce, then use to wrap up the turkey or chicken with the cucumber, onions and watercress. Cut in half and enjoy while still warm.

PEKING CHICKEN OR PORK WRAP

Steps:

• Mix hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, grated gingerroot, minced garlic and chili paste in a medium bowl.
• Reserve 1 cup hoisin sauce mixture; set aside.
• Cut chicken or pork into thin slices.
• Add chicken or pork to the remaining sauce mixture in bowl, and stir well.
• Cover and marinate in the refrigerator up to 8 hours and at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Remove chicken or pork from bowl; discard marinade.
• Coat a large nonstick skillet with some olive oil and place over medium heat until hot.
• Add half of the chicken or pork, being careful not to crowd pan so chicken or pork doesn't stew but actually sears and cook 5 minutes or until done.
• Remove chicken or pork from skillet, and set aside.
• Repeat with remaining chicken or pork (you may need to wash up your pan between searing).
• Warm tortillas according to package directions.
• Spread 2 tablespoons of reserved hoisin sauce mixture down the center of each tortilla.
• Arrange 1/8 of chicken or pork slices and 2 tablespoons green onion slices down the center of each tortilla.
• Roll up and enjoy!
