I may or may not be slightly obsessed with bang bang sauce at the moment.

Then make the bang bang sauce with just three simple ingredients.

I used light mayo to cut some calories along with sweet Thai chili sauce and Sriracha.

You’ll want to mix in about 3/4 of the bang bang sauce with the ground chicken.

Save the rest for those of us who like a little more sauce drizzled over top.

Prepare the lettuce wraps by peeling individual pieces of Boston lettuce and placing them on a plate.

In each lettuce wrap add some shredded carrots and red cabbage.
