Recipe of the Week: Chicken Lettuce Wraps

October 4, 2019

Big thanks to Peak Performance Fitness member, Anne F., for sharing her recipe!

A great way to enjoy the taste of a Chinese restaurant in your own home- these copy cat lettuce wraps are just like the real thing!

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. ground chicken
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 finely minced cloves of garlic
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • ¼ cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp. rice wine vinegar
  • 1  tbsp freshly grated ginger  (I use less; the flavor can overpower)
  • 1 can diced water chestnuts
  • 2 sliced scallions
  • ¼ red pepper finely chopped
  • 1 head of lettuce

Directions:

  1. Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the chicken as it cooks; drain excess fat.
  2. Stir in garlic, onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger until onions have become translucent, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Stir in chestnuts and green onions until tender, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. At the last moment, stir in the red pepper.
  4. To serve, spoon several tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of a soft lettuce leaf, (like Boston lettuce) taco-style.
