This recipe for Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps offers a great amount of flexibility. You can use just about and ground meat you want, choose your wrap such as butter lettuce, romaine, or even a low carb tortilla.

Ingredients

For the meat

1 lb ground chicken

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 scallions, sliced

1 clove garlic, finely minced

1 tablespoon ginger, grated

1/4 cup Soy sauce 2 tablespoons

Keto brown sugar 1 tablespoon Cilantro or parsley

For the toppings

You can use whatever you have on hand, just try to make sure you have different colors and textures for maximum flavor and visual appeal. Dress the toppings with a splash of acid like lime or rice vinegar, and some neutral oil if you like.

For this picture, I used red cabbage, jalapeno, carrot, and the scallion tops.

Instructions

Combine the garlic, ginger, keto brown sugar, and the soy sauce in a small bowl. Stir to dissolve the “sugar”.

Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the sesame oil and the ground chicken. Cook the chicken until it is nearly done, add the scallion bottoms and cook for a minute more. Then add the soy mixture, stir well, and cook until most of the liquid have evaporated.

Notes

Serve on a platter with the meat, leaves, toppings, and a sauce, if you like. A fast and easy sauce is made by simply combining some sriracha and mayonnaise until blended. Use whatever proportions you like to achieve the desired level of spiciness.
