ASIAN BARBECUE CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS | ASIAN BARBECUE BOWL

I’m loving grilling season and this Asian Barbecue Chicken Lettuce Wraps/Bowl are so delicious and fun to make! And you can also serve it as a bowl. Its grilled marinated chicken thighs served over rice & lettuce and topped with a spicy dipping sauce!

Combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, garlic powder and oil in a bowl. Add chicken to the marinade and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Heat grill over high heat and cook chicken about 5 minutes per side or until cooked through.

To serve
