Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I have a habit of watching the Food Network, a lot, and I'm OK with that. While watching this past weekend, I saw an episode of The Pioneer Woman and she was making an Asian Noodle Salad, but decided to lighten it up by using zucchini noodles. While I didn't have zucchini noodles on hand, I was planning on having chicken and lettuce wraps for lunch. I decided to go ahead and make the dressing she was using, and incorporate it into my lettuce wrap mixture. It was delicious and super simple for a healthy lunch. I saved the leftover dressing, which I'll be posting in another recipe for fresh halibut. Enjoy!

NOTE: You can halve this dressing recipe if just using for 1-2 uses
