A quick and tasty chicken dish served in crunchy lettuce wraps.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 head of butter or iceberg lettuce, leaves separated
  • Chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Add the ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the chopped mushrooms and grated carrot, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Pour this sauce over the chicken mixture and stir to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  6. To serve, spoon the chicken mixture into the lettuce leaves, garnishing with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, add some chopped chili peppers to the chicken mixture.
  • Make sure to use fresh lettuce leaves for the best crunch.
  • This dish can also be served with additional sauce on the side for dipping.
