Soy-Free Honey Ginger Chicken Lettuce Wraps with browned chicken, crunchy water chestnuts, ready in 25 minutes for a quick healthy dinner.
Ingredients
24 pieces of butter or romaine lettuce “wraps” (I like to double up)
1 lb ground chicken
2 tbsp avocado oil
1/2 shallot, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup chopped water chestnuts
Sauce:
1/2 cup coconut aminos
1/4 cup honey
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp gluten free flour
1/2 tsp mustard
1 tbsp grated ginger
Topping:
Sesame Seeds
Green Onions
Instructions
1. Slice your shallot and mince your garlic. Heat with avocado oil over low medium heat in a pan for 1 minute.
2. Increase heat to medium high. Add in the meat and let brown for 3-4 minutes before mincing. Mix the meat sparingly to let it brown nicely. Cook until no longer pink or about 5-7 minutes.
3. While this is cooking, combine your sauce in a separate measuring cup.
4. Add the sauce and water chestnuts in and saute for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and the meat continues to brown.
5. Double up your lettuce wrap, place a few tablespoons of meat mixture in the lettuce wrap. Top with sesame seeds and green onions. Enjoy!
