from aimee's adeventures. UPDATE:JAN 13,2009: Made these and they are pretty good! I would definately suggest to add a small can of green chilis and maybe a dash of red pepper flakes to the cheese mix at the begining! It was a tad bland but still really good! I used one can of the cheese soup and one can of the southwest cheese soup!:)

Steps:
- Make rice:
- 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 1 3/4 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil, then add rice and cook, covered tightly, over low heat until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered and undisturbed, 10 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and transfer to a bowl to cool to warm.
- Make dressing and serve wraps:
- Purée all dressing ingredients in a blender until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Toss shredded chicken with lime vinaigrette.
- Put chicken and remaining wrap ingredients in bowls on a large platter with ginger dressing on the side.
Tips:
- Choose the right rice: Use a long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine rice, for this recipe. These types of rice cook up fluffy and separate, making them ideal for wraps.
- Cook the rice ahead of time: You can cook the rice up to 2 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the wraps.
- Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to add other vegetables to the wraps, such as shredded carrots, bell peppers, or spinach. This will make the wraps more colorful and nutritious.
- Make the wraps ahead of time: The wraps can be assembled up to 2 hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This makes them a great option for meal prep.
Conclusion:
Rice and chicken wraps are a delicious and versatile meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're also a great way to use up leftover rice and chicken.
