Begin by draining the canned chicken and placing it in a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and 1 teaspoon of chili garlic sauce to the chicken, then mix well to combine the flavors.
In a separate bowl, prepare the spicy peanut salsa by combining 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and 1 teaspoon of sriracha.
Stir until smooth and well blended. Next, finely chop 1/4 cup of fresh cilantro and 1/4 cup of red onion, then fold them into the chicken mixture.
Take 8 large lettuce leaves and rinse them under cold water, patting them dry with a paper towel. To assemble, spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf.
Drizzle the spicy peanut salsa over the top of the chicken in each wrap. Garnish with additional cilantro and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added texture.
Serve immediately and enjoy the fusion of flavors!
