- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add the sliced chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise (or yogurt), sweet chili sauce, and lime juice, and whisk until smooth.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, reserving the marinade. Cook for 5-7 minutes until cooked through.
- Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring to a simmer for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Warm the tortillas in the microwave or skillet until pliable.
- Spread a tablespoon of the creamy sauce over the center of each tortilla. Layer with shredded lettuce, red cabbage, carrot, cucumber, and sweet chili chicken. Top with cilantro and green onions.
- Fold the tortillas in from the sides and roll tightly from the bottom to form wraps.
