Directions:
-Make the peanut sauce; in a small saucepan combine chicken broth, PB2, 1/2 tbsp sriracha, honey, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tbsp fresh ginger, and 1 clove crushed garlic and simmer over medium-low heat stirring occasionally until sauce becomes smooth and thickens, about 6 to 8 minutes.

-Divide the chicken equally between 8 lettuce leaves, top each with shredded cabbage, remaining scallions, drizzle with peanut sauce, chopped peanuts, and cilantro, for garnish and serve with lime wedges.
