Ingredients

3 green onions
½ 6 ounce package refrigerated cooked chicken breast strips
½ of a medium green sweet pepper, seeded and cut up
3 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil or olive oil
¼ - ½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
1 cup shredded cabbage
2 tablespoon water
2 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
8 sheets of rice paper

Directions

Trim off and discard root ends of green onions. Cut off and slice green tops and set aside. In a food processor combine white parts of the green onions, the chicken breast, sweet pepper, 1 tablespoon of the vinegar, the oil, black pepper, hoisin sauce, and, if desired, crushed red pepper. Cover and pulse with several on-off turns until chicken mixture is finely chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add cabbage and toss to combine. Divide chicken mixture into four individual containers; chill.
For the dipping sauce, in a small bowl combine sliced green onion tops, the remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, the water, and soy sauce. Divide among 4 small containers. Soak rice paper sheets in a shallow plate full of water for 5 to 10 seconds to soften. Place half of the filling from one container on 1 sheet of rice paper, and roll. Makes 4 servings.

To tote:

Pack chicken mixture, lettuce, and dipping sauce separately in insulated container with ice packs. To serve, cover bowl of chicken mixture with vented plastic wrap. Microwave on 100% power (high) for 45 to 60 seconds or until heated through, stirring once halfway through cooking. Spoon a rounded 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture on each lettuce leaf. Roll up and, if desired, cut in half. Serve with dipping sauce.
