This one came from the back of a teriyaki sauce bottle. It's easy, a great low carb appetizer or main dish paired with a salad. And can be altered for a more filling dish by omitting the lettuce and using flour tortillas instead!

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
1 lb ground chicken
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
rice noodles, to taste (optional)
shredded carrot, to taste (optional)
iceberg lettuce leaves or flour tortilla, as needed

Steps:

  • Whisk together water and cornstarch in large mixing bowl until smooth.
  • Stir in teriyaki sauce.
  • Add chicken and water chestnuts.
  • Mix to coat.
  • Marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Cook and stir in small batches in hot oil in a wok or large skillet until no longer pink.
  • Serve with rice noodles, shredded carrots and lettuce leaves or flour tortillas.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Chop the vegetables, marinate the chicken, and measure out the sauce ingredients before you start cooking. This will make the assembly process much faster.
  • Use fresh, crisp lettuce leaves: Butter lettuce, romaine lettuce, or iceberg lettuce all work well for these wraps.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really makes these wraps special. Be sure to use a sauce that you enjoy, and adjust the ingredients to your liking.
  • Assemble the wraps just before serving: This will prevent the lettuce leaves from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

These Asian lettuce chicken wraps are a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a party appetizer. They are also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a variety of flavors and textures, these wraps are sure to please everyone at your table.
