Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps image

I have been looking for something lower carb with crunch and this does the trick! It is pretty spicy so you can cut the chili-garlic sauce (Sriacha) down to 1 teaspoon and add a teaspoon of either soy or teriyaki sauce if you want a milder version. Prep time does not include cooking and shredding the chicken

These lettuce wraps were a bit too bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the filling.

These lettuce wraps were a hit! I used ground turkey instead of chicken and they were still delicious. I also added some chopped water chestnuts for a bit of crunch.
