Recipe: Chicken Lettuce Wraps
2 chicken breast, cut into small pieces
1 T. Oyster Sauce
1 T. Hoisin Sauce
2 T. Soy Sauce
1 T. rice vinegar
1/2 tsp. minced ginger
1 tsp. Sesame Oil
2 tsp. corn starch
Veggies:
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/2 cup of fresh mushrooms, diced
1/2 cup of shredded carrots
1/2 cup of red onion, diced small
2 small zucchini's, diced small
In a medium-size bowl add chicken pieces all of the ingredients listed under "chicken". Set aside and let marinate for 15 minutes. This gives you time to dice your veggies.
Dice and prepare your veggies according to the recipe.
You should have two bowls…one with chicken marinating and one with veggies.
In a pan, heat peanut oil and add veggies. Saute for 4-5 minutes. Remove and return to bowl.
In a pan, add more peanut oil and cook chicken with marinade. The sauce will thicken a bit and should be watched and stirred so that it does not burn.
Once the chicken is cooked add the cooked veggies and stir.
Remove from your heat and serve with lettuce chunks. I cut ahead in half and then in quarters. I removed the very center parts and left the darker green parts of the lettuce.
Peanut Sauce makes a little over a half cup
3 T. peanut butter
1/2 cup of coconut milk
1/4 tsp. minced ginger
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
2 tsp. soy sauce
I added all of the ingredients to a microwavable bowl, heated for 30 seconds, stirred and served.
It was tasty, easy and went well with the wraps.
These look wonderful, and easy, will have to give them a try!
