Notes
LeftoversTo store leftover chicken lettuce wraps, first cool the chicken mixture to room temperature. Then, store the chicken in an airtight container and the lettuce leaves wrapped in a damp paper towel inside a resealable bag or container. The chicken mix can last up to 3-4 days in the fridge, while the lettuce stays crisp for 1-2 days.Originally published:
