Make flavorful Asian-inspired chicken lettuce wraps at home that taste like the popular restaurant version. This recipe uses ground chicken and a savory sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped white onion
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped water chestnuts, drained
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • 1 head butter lettuce or iceberg lettuce, leaves separated and washed

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground chicken to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked through. Drain off any excess fat.
  3. Add the chopped white onion to the skillet and cook for 3 minutes until softened.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper.
  6. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
  7. Add the chopped water chestnuts and cook for 2 more minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in half of the chopped green onions.
  9. Spoon the chicken mixture into the center of each clean lettuce cup.
  10. Garnish with the remaining green onions. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, you can add 1/4 cup of finely diced carrots along with the onions.
  • If you prefer a spicier filling, add 1/2 teaspoon of sriracha to the sauce mixture.
  • Use iceberg lettuce for the crispest cup, or butter lettuce for a softer wrap.
