This is my final test of a Cuisine at Home recipe. The thai chicken skewer wraps were the last of the recipes I culled from my 2 year supply of Cuisine at Home magazines. It seems that most of my choices were asian-inspired recipes and I found that many of them used red pepper flakes that brought way too much heat to the table. I probably should not have tried to do them all in a two week period, but spread them out amongst less-spicy meals.The peanut sauce was really good, even though I did make way too much. I did save the remainder to use on ramen noodles. I did not necessarily follow the kow pad recipe exactly. It was okay, but nothing special.
If I attempt this recipe again, I will make the following alterations:
- use iceberg lettuce
- velvet the chicken in small pieces and stir-fry it with some of the peanut sauce (instead of skewering and broiling -- no flavor)
- omit the cilantro
- make less of the peanut sauce
