Lettuce Wrap Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/4 cup yellow or white onion minced
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1/2 cup diced water chestnuts drained (4 ounce can)
  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 teaspoons ginger grated
  • 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon peanut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon oyster sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 head Boston lettuce or iceberg lettuce
  • 3 tablespoons green onions chopped

Instructions

  • To a bowl add the dipping sauce ingredients. Stir until combined. Place the sauce in the fridge.
  • To a large skillet over medium heat add the chicken, onion, and oil. Stir for 3 minutes.
  • Add the water chestnuts, peppers, garlic cloves, and ginger to the skillet and stir for an additional 4-6 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the peppers are just a bit soft.
  • To the saute pan add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, peanut butter, oyster sauce, white pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir for 3-5 minutes or until the sauce has reduced.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Serve the chicken mixture into your lettuce wraps. I like to double or even triple the lettuce so you have a thicker wrap.
  • Top with green onions.
  • Serve with the spicy dipping sauce.
