Add water and mix thoroughly. Pour over chicken. Toss to coat all of the chicken pieces. Cover and marinade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Soak bamboo skewers 20 minutes in cold water to keep them from burning. Drain the chicken and reserve the marinade. Weave the chicken strips onto each skewers, alternation with green onion pieces. You may need to use several pieces to cover each skewer. Brush chicken and onions with reserved marinade. Grill the skewers on an uncovered grill over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes, turning halfway through the grilling. BEAN SPROUTS: Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the bean sprouts along with the other ingredients. Cook over a medium-high heat until the bean sprouts are tender. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. THAI COCONUT CURRY NOODLES: Place the noodles in hot water, separating with a fork. Let the noodles soak until tender or according to the directions on the package. Drain and keep warm.

Stir in the noodles and serve. THAI MARINATED CUCUMBERS: Combine the vinegar, sugar, water and salt in a small pan. Cook over a medium heat, stirring until it boils and the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature. Peel the cucumber and cut lengthwise into quarters and again crosswise into 1/8″ slices. Place in a serving bowl and pour marinade over cucumbers, stirring to blend. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours. TAMARIND CASHEW DIPPING SAUCE: Combine cashews, hoisin sauce, garlic, green onion, cayenne pepper and black pepper in a blender or food processor and mix until smooth. In a small sauce pan add oil, honey, rice wine vinegar and tamarind pulp. Heat at medium for 1 minute. Stir until the tamarind pulp is completely dissolved. Add this to the cashew mixture and process until smooth. Pour into a serving bowl and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. PEANUT SAUCE: Combine peanut butter, water, sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, and chili oil in a small saucepan. Stir mixture over a medium heat until it begins to bubble.

THAI CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS
Inspired by Thai ingredients, this recipe is perfect for lunch or a light dinner. Use lettuce instead of a tortilla wrap to reduce calories and carbs, and amp up chicken with lime juice, chiles and basil for a quick and healthy sandwich alternative. Lettuce wraps are surprisingly travel-friendly: pack the lettuce leaves and filling separately and assemble when it's time for lunch.

THAI CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS
This is a great Thai recipe because it only has one semi-specialty ingredient, the Thai chili sauce, and it's not very expensive. I found it at the grocery store in my rural town, so I know it will be at your store! It's so, so good. Don't be tempted to leave out the raisins, because they really make it!
