1 lb. ground chicken breast (I bought chicken breasts, cut into chunks and used food processor to grind)
1/2 onion, minced
Salt & Pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1" knob ginger, peeled & minced
2-1/2 T soy sauce
1 T + 1 t rice vinegar
1 T sesame oil
1 T peanut butter
1/2 T water
1/2 T honey
2 t chili garlic sauce (or more if you like it hotter)
dash of pepper
3 green onions, chopped
1/2- 8 oz can sliced water chestnuts, drained & chopped
1/4 cup peanuts, chopped
10-12 large outer lettuce leaves, rinsed and patted dry
Heat
a large, non-stick skillet on high. Add chicken, onion, salt &
pepper, then cook until chicken is nearly done, stirring often to break
up the meat. Add garlic and ginger then continue cooking until chicken
is no longer pink.
Meanwhile, in a microwave safe bowl,
combine soy sauce, vinegar, oil, peanut butter, water, honey, chili
garlic sauce and pepper. Microwave for 20 seconds, then stir until
smooth. Add into the skillet and stir to combine.
Add
green onions and water chestnuts into the skillet then cook for 1-2
minutes until the onions are soft and the water chestnuts are heated
through.
Sprinkle with chopped peanuts, and serve with
cold lettuce leaves. Mixture can be rolled inside of lettuce leaves or
spooned on top of lettuce leaf.
-Serves 2-3 entree-size portions.
*I
have never had this at the restaurant to compare with what these taste
like, but they were a hit with my family! Notes with this recipe said
this was actually better than what is served at the restaurant because
this version is not greasy. If you have had this at the restaurant, let
me know what you think!!
