Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 pound ground chicken or turkey
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)
  • 1/2 cup canned water chestnuts, drained and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1 head butter lettuce or iceberg lettuce, leaves separated

Instructions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add ground chicken or turkey and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the onion softens.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, and sriracha (if using).
  5. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables in the skillet. Stir well to coat everything.
  6. Add the chopped water chestnuts and half of the sliced green onions to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the mixture.
  7. Remove from heat.
  8. Spoon the chicken mixture into individual lettuce cups.
  9. Garnish with the remaining sliced green onions.
  10. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can adjust the sriracha to your preferred spice level.
  • For extra crunch, toast some sesame seeds and sprinkle them over the top.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
