Imlee Tamarind Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Prep time: 15 Minutes
Cook time: 12 Minutes
Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • Ground Chicken – 1 lb
  • Butter Lettuce or Iceberg Cups – 12 leaves
  • Water Chestnuts, Diced – 1 can (8 oz)
  • Carrot, Grated – 1
  • Garlic, Minced – 3 cloves
  • Fresh Ginger, Minced – 1 tbsp
  • My Sauce Lab Imlee – 5 tbsp
  • Soy Sauce – 2 tbsp
  • Sesame Oil – 1 tsp
  • Green Onion, Sliced – 3 stalks
  • Vegetable Oil – 1 tbsp
  • Crushed Peanuts – for garnish

Directions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground chicken and cook, breaking it up, for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  3. Add the garlic and ginger and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in the water chestnuts and grated carrot and cook 2 more minutes — you want them to stay crunchy.
  5. Add the Imlee, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Toss until everything is glossy and coated, about 2 minutes.
  6. Stir through the green onion and remove from heat.
  7. Spoon into lettuce cups and top with crushed peanuts. Serve immediately while the filling is hot and the lettuce is cold.
