Grilled Chicken with Rice and Fruit in Lettuce Wraps

Diners make their own wraps.  Stuff leaves of Boston lettuce with Jasmine rice and shredded Grilled Chicken tossed in a Lime Vinaigrette.  Add prepared herbs, veggies and fruit.  Roll it up, drizzle on Ginger Dressing and tuck in!

for Chicken:

~  2 grilled chicken breasts
~  1/3 cup lime vinaigrette (see below)

Shred the chicken meat and toss in the vinaigrette.  Let it sit 5 minutes and toss again.  Transfer to serving bowl.

for Lime Vinaigrette  (can be made ahead):

~  1/2 cup fresh lime juice
~  1 tablespoon honey
~  1/2 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
~  3/4 teaspoon salt
~  1 cup olive oil

Whisk together the first 4 ingredients, then drizzle in the olive oil. Use 1/3 cup for chicken and serve the rest in a pitcher or dressing bottle.

for colorful bowls of Herbs, Veggies and Fruit:

~  1 head "Nancy" Boston lettuce, leaves separated and washed
~  1 cucumber, halved lengthwise, cored and cut into 1/8" thick matchsticks
~  1 red onion, cut into very thin slices
~  1 lb ripe peach or mango, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/8" thick matchsticks
~  1/4 cup fresh cilantro or other herb, finely chopped

for Rice  (can be made ahead and warmed before serving):

~  1 cup Jasmine rice
~  1 3/4 cups water
~  1/4 teaspoon salt

Wash rice in 3 or 4 changes of cold water in a large bowl until water is clear, then drain well in a large sieve.  Bring measured water and salt to a boil, add rice, cover tightly and cook over low heat until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes.  Remove pot from heat and let stand, covered and undisturbed another 10 minutes.  Fluff rice with a fork and transfer to a bowl to cool a bit.

for Ginger Dressing  (can be made ahead):

~  1/2 cup seasoned rice vinegar
~  1/2 cup vegetable oil
~  6 tablespoons mayonnaise
~  1/4 cup soy sauce
~  1/4 cup fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
~  2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
~  1/2 teaspoon Asian sesame oil

Puree all ingredients until smooth, about a minute in a blender.  Serve in a pitcher.
