Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground chicken (or turkey for a leaner option)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (or coconut oil for a hint of tropical flavor)
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (use red, yellow, or green for color)
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free alternative)
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar (or coconut sugar for less refined sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 head of lettuce (iceberg or butter lettuce works best for wrapping)
  • Chili sauce or Sriracha for serving (optional)
  • Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the ground chicken and cook until it is browned and fully cooked, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the diced bell peppers, onions, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet still vibrant in color.
  • Stir in the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and grated ginger. Mix well and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and fold in the shredded carrots, chopped green onions, and cilantro.
  • Wash and separate the lettuce leaves for wrapping.
  • Spoon the chicken mixture into the center of each lettuce leaf and top with chili sauce or Sriracha if desired.
