Equipment

  • wok

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb Ground Chicken
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated
  • 1/3 cup Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Hoisin Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
  • 1 tsp Sriracha
  • 1 can Water Chestnuts, drained and diced (8 oz)
  • 3 Green Onions, sliced
  • 1 head Butter Lettuce, leaves separated
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds
  • Shredded Carrots for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground chicken and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, breaking it into small crumbles, until browned and cooked through.
  • Add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant and the garlic is just starting to turn golden.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sriracha. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and stir to combine.
  • Add the diced water chestnuts and most of the sliced green onions. Toss everything together and cook for 2 more minutes so the water chestnuts warm through and the sauce reduces slightly.
  • Drizzle the sesame oil over the mixture and give it one final toss.
  • Spoon the chicken mixture into butter lettuce cups. Top with remaining green onions, shredded carrots, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
