Estelle's Notes:

Besides being delicious, this is a fun appetizer because you get to use your hands to hold the wraps!

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

These yummy little wraps are tops in flavor AND texture! They're easy on the waistline and are a tasty, snackable treat.

Directions

In a small bowl, combine seasoning, water, soy sauce, lime juice and sugar. Set aside. Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, using a wooden spoon to break up the meat. Cook until browned, about 10 minutes. Add red bell pepper, water chestnuts, scallions, and red chili-pepper flakes and cook 5 minutes. Stir in reserved seasoning mix. Cook until liquid evaporates, about 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with bean sprouts, chopped mint, peanuts, if desired.
