Quick pickled carrots:

Instructions
- Prepare carrots. Add vinegar, sugar and salt to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir until sugar dissolves. Add carrots to a heat-proof bowl, and pour vinegar mixture over top. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Remove large thick stalks at end of chard leaves. Blanch chard leaves in batches in boiling water for 10-15 seconds until just pliable. Remove from water and cool to room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
- Whisk together the vinegar, sesame oil, peanut butter, ginger, soy sauce and honey in a medium bowl. Season with a pinch of salt. Fold in shredded chicken, peanuts, green onions and cilantro, and mix until combined.
To assemble:
- Lay out a chard leaf on a clean work surface. Layer a second leaf to cover any holes. Add chicken mixture, quick pickled carrots, then avocado and herbs. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Roll up like a burrito. Slice in half on the bias to serve.
