Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 8 shiitake mushrooms finely chopped
  • 1 can water chestnuts drained and chopped
  • 3 green onions sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger grated
  • 1 head butter lettuce leaves separated
Sauce
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sriracha optional

Equipment

  • large skillet or wok
  • medium bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients: hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and sriracha (if using). Set aside.
Cooking
  1. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground chicken and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Drain any excess fat from the skillet. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the chopped shiitake mushrooms and water chestnuts. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until the mushrooms have softened.
  4. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the sliced green onions.
Serving
  1. Spoon the chicken mixture into individual butter lettuce leaves and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic and ginger. You can also substitute ground turkey for ground chicken if you prefer.
