Ingredients

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 pound ground chicken
5 cloves garlic minced
1/2 cup water chestnuts chopped
1/2 yellow onions
1 jalapeño diced (optional)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
1 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
kosher salt to taste
2 green onions chopped plus more for garnish
8 Boston lettuce leaves can substitute iceberg or Bibb lettuce
chopped peanuts optional

Instructions

Heat canola oil in a large skillet. Add chicken and 1/2 of minced garlic, cook until chicken is no longer pink. Transfer to a colander to drain liquid. Return the cooked chicken to the pan.
To the pan add jalapeno (if using), water chestnuts, yellow onion, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic chili sauce and Chinese five spice. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until bean sprouts are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Stir in green onions.
Gently rinse and pat dry lettuce leaves.
Spoon mixture into leaves just before serving. Or place chicken mixture in a bowl next to lettuce leaves and let people dish up for themselves. Garnish with more green onions and chopped peanuts if desired.
