This is another recipe from our pioneer dinner. We had a fun time and everything turned out great. Hopefully You will try out these recipes.

Ground Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Cook in frying pan, cast iron is best:

Heat frying pan just until hot and then add 2 tablespoons Light Olive Oil and then Ground Chicken, onions and Sea Salt and Pepper.

*1 pound Ground Chicken
*2 medium Onions, minced
*Salt and Pepper to taste

Cook until no longer pink.

Tip: Chop up chicken continuously while the meat cooks you want it very fine no big chunks of chicken. I use a spatula.

Then add the Sauce below and simmer about 15 minutes.

Mix Sauce in Bowl:

*2 Garlic minced or pressed
*1 tablespoon peeled grated fresh Ginger
* 3 tablespoons Lite Soy Sauce
*1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
*1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
*1 tablespoon Peanut Butter
*1/2 tablespoon Water
*1/2 tablespoon Honey
*2 teaspoons Garlic Chili Sauce
*dash of Pepper

After simmering add:

*1/2 can of 8 ounce Water Chestnuts chopped fine

Serve individually with a Scoop Chicken Mixture on each piece of lettuce.

We used Romaine Lettuce Leaves and live Butter Crunch Lettuce, you can see it in the picture below. We bought the live Butter Crunch Lettuce at Maceys Grocery Store.

We placed the meat on the lettuce and let the guests roll them up.
