  2. Cover the pot and let the mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked through and easy to shred.
  3. Once cooked, remove the lid and shred the chicken into chunky pieces using two forks.
  4. Turn the heat down to low and let the shredded chicken simmer uncovered for a few more minutes to allow the sauce to thicken and coat the meat.
  5. While the chicken finishes, wash and dry the lettuce and prepare all the fresh vegetables, including the radish, cucumber, carrots, onions, and peppers.

  7. Drizzle with extra sweet chili sauce, garnish with fresh cilantro, roll the wrap up tightly, and serve immediately.

Notes

Store the cooked chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days, keeping fresh vegetables separate to maintain their crunch. For the best texture, avoid shredding the chicken too finely so it holds the sauce better.
