Serves 8
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 large plum, quartered, pitted, and cut into 1/4-inch pieces (1 cup)
1 pre-cooked rotisserie chicken, skin removed, shredded
8 (6- to 7-inch) flour tortillas, warmed in oven or microwave
3 scallions, sliced
Directions
Add hoisin, soy, honey, ginger, vinegar, and garlic to a medium-sized saucepan and boil until thickened. Add plums and simmer for about 5 minutes. Place chicken in a large mixing bowl and add enough sauce (about 4 tablespoons) to coat thoroughly. Pour the remaining sauce into a bowl for dipping. To create wraps, place a heaping portion of chicken in the center of the tortilla, top with scallions and wrap up like a burrito.
