Marny
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 onion, diced
- ¼ cup Hoisin sauce
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp freshly grated ginger
- optional: 1 Tbsp Sriracha
- 8 ounce (1 can) whole water chestnuts, drained and diced
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 head butter lettuce
Method
Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the chicken as it cooks; drain excess fat.
Stir in garlic, onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger and Sriracha until onions have become translucent, about 1-2 minutes.
Stir in chestnuts and green onions until tender, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
To serve, spoon several tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the centre of a lettuce leaf, taco-style.
