Asia Tacos - aka Grilled Chicken Wrapped with Mint and Lettuce

¾ cup Asia-Lite Marinade, recipe at right

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Bunch fresh mint

1 head Boston lettuce, leaves separated

Large bean sprouts, optional

1 lime, cut into wedges

Heat a gas grill or build a charcoal fire.

Reserve one-third of the marinade.

Add the chicken to the remaining marinade, making sure all surfaces are coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour, turning occasionally to coat all sides.

When ready to grill, remove the meat from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken directly on the cooking grates. Grill for about 10 minutes, the cooking time or until the chicken is completely cooked through.

When the chicken is done, remove from the grill and drizzle with a little of the remaining marinade. Let sit for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, arrange the mint, lettuce leaves, bean sprouts and lime wedges buffet-style on one or several platters. Thinly slice the chicken on the diagonal and add the chicken slices to the platter. Place the reserved marinade in a bowl to serve on the side.

Serves four.
