Ingredients:

Serving

5 oz bean threads, uncooked (aka rice or cellophane or glass noodles)
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp chili paste with garlic
4 tsp dark sesame oil
4 cups chopped chopped roasted boneless skinless chicken
1/2 cup roughly chopped roasted unsalted peanuts (or cashews)
1/4 cup finely shredded raw carrot (optional)
1/4 cup shredded raw cucumber (optional)
24 large boston lettuce leaves (or romaine)

Directions:

Cover bean threads with boiling water. Let stand for 5 minutes or until softened. Drain, and rinse under cool water. Chop noodles.
While bean threads soak, combine cilantro, soy sauce, chile paste, and oil in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add noodles, chicken, and nuts to soy sauce mixture; toss well to coat. Stir in carrots and cucumber, if using.
Spoon 1/3 to 1/2 cup chicken mixture down center of each lettuce leaf; roll up. Serve immediately.
