Expert Tips

These can also be served with a store-bought spicy peanut sauce.

We recommend Bibb lettuce for this recipe because of its sturdiness.

This was a pretty good recipe. Next time, I would use less peanut butter. I didn't want it spicy bc of my kids, so I omitted the crushed red peppers. I also replaced the 2 tsp, garlic/chili with 2 tsp. soy sauce. I'll be making this again!
