Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken

2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon cooking oil

2 green onions, chopped

4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, sliced

2 teaspoons seasoned rice vinegar

1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1 large mango, diced

1 head of butter lettuce, rinsed, leaves separated

Directions

Place the ground chicken, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a large bowl. Mix to combine.

Heat a wok or a large sauté pan on medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the oil. Add the green onions and sliced shiitakes. Let cook for about a minute.

Increase the heat to high, and add the ground chicken, soy sauce, cornstarch mixture. Use a wooden spoon to break up the ground chicken and spread around the pan. Stir fry in this way for 5 to 7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Add the seasoned rice vinegar, sesame oil, and diced mango. Remove from heat. Adjust seasonings to taste. Scoop spoonfuls into the cups formed by the lettuce leaves to serve. Options - stir in a small spoonful of chili sauce, or add a few chili pepper flakes to the oil as it is heating. Top with some fresh cilantro leaves. Experiment with other meats such as lamb, turkey, beef, or pork. Try subbing out the mango with mandarin orange slices.
