A delightful mix of tender ground chicken and crunchy vegetables wrapped in crisp lettuce leaves, perfect for a quick meal or gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 head of Romaine or Butter Lettuce
  • Optional toppings: shredded carrots, chopped nuts, green onions

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  2. Add the ground chicken and cook until it is beautifully browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
  3. Stir in the minced onion, garlic, and bell pepper, allowing them to cook until softened and fragrant, which should take about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and season with salt and pepper. Mix everything well, letting it simmer pleasantly for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors together.
  5. Remove from heat and let the chicken mixture cool slightly.
  6. Spoon the chicken mixture into the lettuce leaves, adding any optional toppings you fancy, and serve immediately.

Notes

Leftover filling can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Store lettuce leaves separately until ready to eat for maximum crispness.
