Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Where my mushroom lovers at?
Mushrooms are nutritionally loaded.
They’re low in calories, are great sources of fiber and protein.
They also provide B vitamins, selenium, potassium, copper, and vitamin D.
And even though mushrooms are commonly white or lighter brown, they’re completely packed with antioxidants like the more colorful fruits and vegetables.
Makes about 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 12 oz. Cremini mushrooms, sliced
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 Tbsps sesame oil, divided
- 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced and divided
- 1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos, Bragg’s liquid aminos, or low sodium soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp rice vinegar
- butter or romaine lettuce leaves, rinsed and dried
- green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions:
Heat 1 Tablespoon oil large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add in mushrooms, 1 garlic clove, and sautè until just softened, about 3 minutes. Season with a tiny pinch of sea salt and pepper and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet add the remaining oil, chicken, garlic, cayenne pepper and ginger and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Return mushrooms to the pan and pour in the coconut aminos and rice vinegar. Stir until combined and just heated through.
Allow to cool a tiny bit then scoop into lettuce leaves.
Garnish with sliced green onions & sesame seeds.
Enjoy!
