Lettuce Wraps

OMGoodness.
So easy.  So delicious!
Without a doubt one of my favorite new recipes in a long time.  
It's a perfect mixture to make double batches and freeze for a quick meal. Or pass to a neighbour in need of a little help.



LETTUCE WRAPS

Filling:
1 lb ground chicken breast or turkey
2 tsp canola oil
1 tsp garlic
1/2 tsp shredded ginger
2 chopped green onions
3/4 c frozen corn
3/4 c frozen peas
1/4 c chopped red pepper
1/2 c chopped water chestnuts

Sauce:
3 tsp hoisin sauce
2 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp rice wine vinegar
1 tsp sriracha sauce (red rooster sauce)

Heat your frying pan with oil on high.
Add garlic & ginger and cook for only a few seconds until fragrant.  
Add chicken/turkey and cook through.   
Add corn, peas, water chestnuts, and red pepper just long enough to heat through (1-2 minutes).
Stir in half the sauce to the sauté mixture and cook for 1 minute.  Keep remaining sauce for drizzling once you've wrapped in your lettuce.

Top your wraps with carrots and cucumbers if you wish.

** I've made this recipe with iceberg lettuce and leaf lettuce and preferred the iceberg variety.
