This made for a quick, tasty weeknight meal, even having to use homemade hoison sauce ( Hoisin Sauce ). It was a good use of the rest of the leftover coleslaw mix in the fridge. Served with some edamame and fruit. Thanks for posting!

Really quick & tasty meal with a great combination of flavors. I made exactly as described other than I used a little extra chicken.

Super easy to make, I doubled the chicken and the sauce and made my own coleslaw mix consisting of green cabbage, red cabbage (equal amounts), 2 medium carrots grated and 1 large spring onion finely sliced but I didn't cook it with the chicken because we like the raw crunchy taste in the wrap with the chicken and drizzling some of the sauce over the chicken and coleslaw. I used rye and wholegrain tortillas. Good easy quick mid week meal we enjoyed. The DH and DS had 2 while the DM and myself had 1 each.
