Thai Chicken Lettuce Cups
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 2-1/2 hours
YIELD: 12 servings.
Lettuce wraps make light, lively appetizers. These are easy to make because the slow cooker does most of the work. Just load it up and let things get cooking. When the chicken is cooked, just shred and serve. —Robin Haas, West Roxbury, Massachusetts
