1 tablespoon Lemon Juice, freshly squeezed
8–10 leaves Butter Lettuce or Romaine Hearts
Sea Salt & Black Pepper, to taste

- Prepare the Lettuce: Wash and dry lettuce leaves thoroughly
- Assemble: Spoon chicken salad mixture into lettuce leaves, being careful not to overfill

Notes
Control moisture by deseeding tomatoes for meal prep.
Use the double leaf technique for thin lettuce leaves for sturdier wraps.
Chill filling for at least 30 minutes before serving for better flavor.
