Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons sesame oil, then add 1 pound ground chicken or ground turkey. Break the meat apart with a wooden spoon and stir until cooked through and broken into very small pieces, about 5 minutes (no pink remaining).
- Add ½ cup green onions, 1 tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves), and 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger. Stir and sauté the aromatics for 3 minutes.
- Add the drained and diced 8 ounce can water chestnuts, ¼ cup hoisin sauce, ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce, and 1–2 teaspoons sriracha hot sauce. Stir until combined.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the meat.
- While the filling finishes, gently break the leaves off 1 head butter lettuce and stack them on a serving platter.
- To serve, scoop about 2 tablespoons of the chicken filling onto each lettuce leaf, fold like a taco, and enjoy.
Notes
Storing Leftovers– The ground chicken mixture is fabulous for meal prepping! Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container, separate from the lettuce leaves, and keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Freezing– For longer storage, you can freeze the cooled filling mixture in an airtight ziploc bag for up to 2 months. Thaw it in the fridge overnight before using cold or reheating gently to serve.

Reheating– I suggest reheating the chicken in the microwave in short 20-second bursts at 50% power, stirring between bursts. You can also reheat it on the stovetop, in a skillet or cooking pot. You might need to add a splash of water to loosen the ground meat mixture as it reheats.
