Lettuce Cups with Stir-Fried Chicken
Crisp lettuce leaves hold savory stir-fried chicken, mushrooms, scallions, garlic and ginger for a fresh, hands-on meal with chili sauce.
Ingredients
- Garlic
- Soy sauce
- Cornstarch
- Scallions
- Mushrooms
- Ginger
- Chicken
Directions
- Set the lettuce leaves out on a large platter. Add the chili sauce to a small bowl, then tuck the bowl onto the platter with the leaves.
- In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, scallions, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Leave it at room temperature for 10 minutes, giving it a stir now and then as it marinates.
- Warm the oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add the mushrooms and stir-fry for 15 seconds. Stir in the garlic and ginger, and cook for another 10 seconds.
- Add the chicken mixture to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the chicken is browned and fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes.
- Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the lettuce leaves. Sprinkle with cashews, wrap the leaves around the filling, and dip into the chili sauce.
