Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp peanut oil
  • 2 lbs ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 5 tbsp soy sauce
  • 4 tbsp teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp gourmet garden ginger stir-in paste
  • 1 tbsp Simply Asia Sweet & Smoky Hibachi Seasoning, optional
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds, optional
  • 1 8 oz. can of water chestnuts, drained and diced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 head lettuce

Instructions
 

  • Heat peanut oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the chicken as it cooks; drain excess fat.
  • While chicken is cooking combine in a separate bowl the peanut butter, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, garlic powder, ginger paste and hibachi seasoning. Whisk together until sauce is combined.
  • Once chicken is browned, stir in water chestnuts, and cook 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Then stir in sauce mixture and simmer on low heat until sauce has blended well with chicken, about 2-3 minutes.
  • To serve, spoon several tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of a lettuce leaf, taco-style.
