Chicken Lettuce Wraps



Made this bad boy last night, and it was delishhhhh!

Ingredients:
1 head butter lettuce
1 red bell pepper
2 garlic cloves
1/2 head cabbage
2 chicken breasts, shredded
5 sprigs of green onion
1 tablespoon ginger root
2 cloves garlic
soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
Sriracha sauce
Salt & Pepper
Canola or Peanut oil


3/4ths of this dish is simply preparation. First finely chop all of the vegetables. Make sure to mince the ginger root and garlic. Next, cook and shred two chicken breasts. Season chicken with salt and pepper.

Cooking it...


Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Throw in all of your chopped veggies and chicken. Saute for 3 minutes. Next add your salt & pepper, a couple times around the dish of soy sauce, one time around the dish of sriracha, and 2 tablespoons of the hoisin sauce. Stir it all around and cook for another two minutes.

Serve nice and hot with the crisp butter lettuce!


Yummmmmmy. This one is definitely making it to the cookbook!

Happy eatings,
Steph

  1. I love lettuce wraps! So glad you posted it. I'll definitely try it in my new kitchen next week!
    I always wonder though, what can you serve with lettuce wraps? I know they're kind of a meal in themselves, but ya know, if I want to impress people I need some sides.
    Impress me Chef!

  2. Haha, I usually serve them with some edamame, and there is actually pretty good packaged miso and hot & sour soup at the grocery store... pretty sure that combo is bound to impress your loverboy!
