One of my favorite pre-cooked items to get from the grocery store is a rotisserie chicken. I love it for quick meals when I don’t have a ton of time to cook. I add it to soups, salads and wraps and I also save the leftover bones to make homemade stock.

Ingredients

1 rotisserie chicken

5 to 6 heirloom carrots, grated on the large holes of a box grater 

5 scallions, thinly sliced 

1/2 head green cabbage, shredded (about 5 heaping cups) 

1 cup roasted and salted cashews, roughly chopped 

1 cup cilantro leaves and stems, finely chopped 

One 3-inch piece ginger, peeled and cut into small chunks 

2 to 3 cloves garlic, peeled 

1/2 cup coconut aminos 

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 

1/4 cup rice wine vinegar  

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil 

1 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard 

Kosher salt 

8 burrito-size flour tortillas 

Directions

  1. Break down the chicken, removing all of the meat from the bones and shred into 1- to 2-inch pieces. Save the carcass to make stock with later.
  2. Place the shredded chicken in a large bowl along with the carrots, scallions, cabbage, cashews and cilantro. Toss together. 
  3. Add the ginger, garlic, coconut aminos, olive oil, vinegar, sesame oil, ground mustard and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the carafe of a high-speed blender, such as a Vitamix. Blend on high for 30 seconds. Pour over the chicken mixture and toss to combine. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt if needed. 
  4. Scoop some of the mixture into the lower middle half of each tortilla, then fold over and tuck in the sides while rolling up into a wrap. Slice in half and serve.

Cook’s Note

The chicken salad can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 day.

Really liked this recipe. I like using rotisserie chickens and always make stock for other recipes. Did not have coconut aminos or sesame oil but I looked it up and was told to use light soy sauce and olive oil which worked out. This recipe was just what I needed for lunches.
