As promised, I am giving the recipe for the lettuce wraps from my February monthly menu. This is a regular meal in our house. I serve them with white steamed rice and vegetable spring rolls (Royal Asia brand from Costco, they are the best). Enjoy!
Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps
3-4 green onions, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1 can water chestnuts
2-3 chicken breasts, chopped
1 tablespoon oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
3 tablespoons hoison sauce (located near Asian foods)
Romaine lettuce leaves
Place green onions, bell pepper, and water chestnuts in food processor and process until finely chopped. Remove from processor and set aside.
Heat large skillet and add oil. Place chicken breasts in food processor and process until finely chopped. Add chicken to skillet and cook until chicken is cooked through (about 6-7 minutes). Add garlic and ginger and saute for another 1-2 minutes. Add chopped vegetables until moisture is taken out (about 3 minutes). Add hoison sauce and heat through.
Serve on full romaine leaves.
** You can make this recipe without a food processor. Just finely chop the vegetables by hand and as the chicken is cooking constantly stir and separate the chicken into small bits.
