Method
 

Preparation
  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, garlic powder, ground ginger, and chili flakes. Add chicken, coat well, cover, and marinate for at least 20 minutes to 4 hours.
  2. Make the Peanut Sauce: Combine peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a bowl. Mix until smooth; add warm water for desired consistency.
  3. Prepare the Asian Slaw: Toss cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, scallions, and cilantro in a bowl. Mix lime juice, rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in another bowl and pour over the slaw. Let sit for 10 minutes.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook marinated chicken for 5 to 7 minutes per side until browned and cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  5. Assemble the Wraps: Warm tortillas slightly. Spread peanut sauce on each, layer with slaw and sliced chicken, and drizzle more sauce. Roll carefully and enjoy!

Notes

For best flavor, allow the chicken to marinate longer. Use a blender for a smoother peanut sauce if desired. Assemble wraps just before serving to maintain freshness.
