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

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