This flavor-packed P.F. Chang’s copycat Chinese Chicken, Low-Carb Lettuce Wrap recipe was originally taken from our sister website, Living Well Spending Less, and has long been a family favorite (even for people who eat carbs!) Now that we’ve adapted it to be a great, low carb dinner option by cutting out some of the sugary sauce, it’s a great low carb dinner option that everyone will love!

Save on time during the week by preparing the chicken in the marinade ahead of time, then freezing or refrigerating until needed. You can even double or triple the recipe to keep on hand!

Note-don’t worry if your chicken isn’t all the way thawed. It can also cook from frozen, it might just take a little longer.
