Slow Cooker Paleo Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

  • Cooking Time:

    4-6 hours
  • Servings:

    6-8

Ingredients

2 - 3 lbs. boneless chicken thighs, cut in 1 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 of a red pepper, thinly sliced (or color pepper of your choice)
1 tsp. garlic powder
4 T. Coconut Aminos
2 T. Almond Butter
1 T. Raw Honey
2 T. Rice wine vinegar
2 tsp. olive oil
1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp. of Black Pepper
1 T. minced ginger
1 carrot, thinly shredded
Bib lettuce, or other lettuce for wraps

An Asian classic that packs a punch of flavor!  Slow Cooker Paleo Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps make a great light lunch or dinner idea!

Note: Stick to the ingredient list to keep this Paleo.  However if that’s not important to you, then you can sub ingredients such as soy sauce for coconut aminos and (dairy) butter or oil for the almond butter.

  1. Liberally season chicken thigh pieces with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.  Place meat in crock.
  2. Next, combine all other ingredients in small bowl
  3. Pour over chicken in crock.
  4. Cover. Crock on Low for 4 hours or until chicken is tender and cooked through.
  5. Garnish with shredded carrots or cabbage, chopped jicama, and/or cilantro. and serve in lettuce pieces to make “wraps”

Happy Crocking!

Kristi, I find that romaine hearts work best for my lettuce wraps at home! Hope that helps! 🙂

Boston Bibb lettuce – found in most grocery stores – are perfect because the leaves are large and curve naturally around the filling

Where is the best place to get coconut aminos and how are they packaged? Like what section of a health food store I’m guessing!

You can get coconut aminos at the health store. I use Braggs liquid aminos and it tastes better than soy sauce!

I used soy sauce and not almond butter as it was too expensive and I did not know if I could sub it for pnut butter so I didn’t. Mine turned out nothing like the above picture :/ It’s basically crockpot chicken. I guess these two ingredients made a difference?

Earlier you state you can use peanut butter, aren’t peanuts to be avoided when following a paleo diet? Just wondering, (I thought legumes were a no no)

I subbed Tamari for the aminos since it is gluten free soy sauce with a deeper flavor. And used sunflower seed butter. They came out great. A tad watery on the sauce though..

This did not turn out for me. The sauce lacked flavor and the meat was not good.
