Ingredients
1 pound ground chicken
1 head butter lettuce, leaves separated
1 small onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1 cup water chestnuts, finely chopped
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 green onions, sliced
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
1. Wash and dry the butter lettuce leaves, then set them aside for serving.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Add the ground chicken and cook, breaking it apart, until browned and fully cooked.
4. Stir in the diced onion, garlic, and grated ginger, then cook until the onion softens and everything smells fragrant.
5. Add the chopped water chestnuts, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper.
6. Stir well and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce coats the chicken mixture.
7. Mix in most of the sliced green onions, reserving a little for garnish.
8. Spoon the warm filling into the lettuce leaves.
9. Top with the remaining green onions and sesame seeds, then serve immediately.
Notes
Do not overfill the lettuce leaves, or they can tear and make the wraps messy to eat.
