Time 2h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 lb chicken
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
3 tablespoons soybean oil or 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 heads romaine lettuce, cleaned
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 ounce scallion, sliced thin
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

Dice the chicken into tiny pieces. Place the chicken in a mixing bowl and add 2 tablespoons soybean oil, ginger, garlic, chili flakes and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Mix together in circular motion until well mixed.
Let marinate in refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
Mix together the citrus juices, soy, and hoisin sauce with a whisk. Reserve until needed.
Clean the romaine lettuce, chopping off the stem, peeling each 'spear' and running under clean cold water. Reserve in refrigerator until ready to use. Chop scallions into rings and reserve chilled.
Coat a very hot sauté pan lightly with soybean or vegetable oil.
Lay the chicken around the sauté pan being careful not to lay too many on top of each other. Sear the chicken until crispy and golden brown, about 2 ½ minutes. Once chicken is brown, toss gently in pan and sear another 2 ½ minutes. The pan will appear to "burn", but that is the carmelization and where all the flavor comes from.
Add ½ of the citrus soy mixture to the sauté pan and coat well. Let the sauce coat the chicken until it is glazed, and thickens on the chicken. Add more or less depending on how "wet" you want your mixture. Spoon chicken onto a plate.
Wrap the chicken mixture in romaine lettuce and top with scallion rings. Serve and enjoy!
*Fun fact: this recipe can also be done with baby shrimps, fish or beef.

P. F. CHANG'S CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS

You can skip the restaurant version and make your own in 20 minutes and I promise you this homemade version tastes better. They're super easy and healthier with so many layers of flavor from the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce (reduce if you're sensitive to heat), rice wine vinegar, garlic, ginger, and green onions. I found all the ingredients in the Asian section of my regular grocery store. I've made the recipe using both ground chicken and ground turkey and both were excellent.

Yield 4 serves, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 lb ground chicken (I've also used ground turkey with good results)
1 large vidalia onions or 1 large yellow onion, diced small
1/3 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon asian chili-garlic sauce
3 minced garlic cloves
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and diced small
2 -3 green onions, sliced into thin rounds
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
8 butter lettuce leaves, for serving

Steps:

To a large skillet, add the oils, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat until chicken is cooked through; stir intermittently to crumbly while cooking.
Add the onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, chili garlic sauce, stir to combine, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until onion is soft and translucent and most of the liquid has been absorbed; stir intermittently.
Add the garlic, ginger, stir to combine, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Add the water chestnuts, green onions, salt and pepper to taste, and cook for about 2 minutes, or until tender. Taste filling and make any necessary flavor adjustments, i.e. more soy sauce, hoisin, pepper, etc.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of the mixture into the lettuce leaves to serve. Recipe is best warm and fresh but filling will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Tips:

Use high-quality ground chicken or turkey to ensure the best flavor.
Don't overcook the chicken or turkey, as it will become dry and tough.
Use a variety of vegetables for added flavor and texture.
Use a flavorful sauce or dressing to enhance the taste of the wraps.
Garnish the wraps with fresh herbs or vegetables for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve the wraps immediately, while they are still warm and crispy.
