Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup finely chopped shiitake mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup diced water chestnuts
  • 1/4 cup tamari sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • Salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
  • 1 head of romaine or butter lettuce leaves separated
  • 1/4 cup chopped scallions
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1/4 cup crushed peanuts optional

Method
 

  1. Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Add the ground chicken, breaking it into smaller pieces with a spatula. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Mix in the chopped shiitake mushrooms and diced water chestnuts, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms soften.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the tamari sauce, sweet chili sauce, rice wine vinegar, toasted sesame oil, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetable blend, stirring well to combine.
  6. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld.
  7. To assemble, take a lettuce leaf and fill it with the chicken mixture. Top with chopped scallions, fresh cilantro, and crushed peanuts if desired.
