Mu Shu Chicken Wraps

 photo MuShuchickenwraps.jpg

Into the crock-pot, on LOW for 6 hours:
  • 1 white onion, chopped
  • 2-3 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 TBS sesame oil
  • 3/4 cup Hoisin sauce
  • 1 TBS soy sauce
  • 1 TBS honey
  • 2 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • salt & pepper to taste
Prep for serving 30 minutes prior to mealtime:
  • fajita size flour tortillas, warm
  • shredded napa cabbage (1/2 cup per person)
  • sliced green onions

HINT:  We couldn't find any napa cabbage so I used regular cabbage sliced very thin.  Slivered almonds would be a good additional topping to these wraps, make sure you have extra Hoisin sauce on hand for dipping...enjoy!!
