CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM BULGOGI LETTUCE WRAPS

Chicken and Mushroom Bulgogi Lettuce Wraps image

The savory Korean bulgogi marinade in this recipe is made with pantry items and livens up just about anything you put it on. Here, the soy-scallion-ginger marinade is used on boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but it can also be brushed on tofu, zucchini or bell peppers for a satisfying vegetarian meal. As the meat cooks, the marinade caramelizes into a sweet-salty sticky glaze that coats the chicken. Serving the grilled chicken and vegetables in lettuce cups is a fun way to enjoy the meal. Korean condiments like kimchi and gochujang are traditional bulgogi accompaniments, but shredded cabbage, salsa or even guacamole would also work. Leftovers can be refrigerated overnight, then chopped and tossed with salad greens.

Ingredients

6 large dried Chinese mushrooms
Drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 large onion, peeled and finely chopped
2 pounds lean ground chicken
3 tablespoons mirin or white wine
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon oyster sauce

Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pan and cook the onion for a few minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the ground chicken and cook for 4 to 6 minutes, mixing the meat with the other ingredients as it cooks, so it breaks up into little pieces. Add the mirin or wine followed by the sesame oil, sesame seeds, oyster sauce, soy sauce, water chestnuts and garlic. Cook for a few minutes and let the mixture caramelize. Add the spring onions and remove from the heat. Spread a bit of plum sauce on the inside of each radicchio leaf. Then top with a spoonful of the chicken mixture.

Tips:

Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around in the kitchen.
Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife is essential for slicing the chicken and mushrooms thinly. This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
Cook the chicken and mushrooms over high heat: This will help to sear the chicken and mushrooms and prevent them from becoming dry.
Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to lettuce, you can also use other vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, and cucumbers in your wraps.
Get creative with your toppings: There are many different toppings that you can add to your lettuce wraps, such as shredded cheese, chopped nuts, and sliced avocado.
