Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 pound ground chicken (I use 93 to 95% lean; I’ve also used ground turkey with good results)
1 medium/large sweet Vidalia or yellow onion diced small
⅓ cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce (use tamari or coconut aminos to keep gluten-free)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Asian chili garlic sauce or to taste (sriracha may be substituted)
3 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed (or garlic powder to taste)
1 teaspoon ground ginger or 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger or to taste
one 8-ounce can water chestnuts drained and diced small
2 to 3 green onions sliced into thin rounds
½ teaspoon salt or to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
butter lettuce leaves for serving (romaine lettuce may be subbed and used as lettuce boats rather than wraps)

Instructions

To a large skillet, add the oils, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat until chicken is cooked through; stir intermittently to crumbly while cooking.
Add the onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, chili garlic sauce, stir to combine, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until onion is soft and translucent and most of the liquid has been absorbed; stir intermittently.
Add the garlic, ginger, stir to combine, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Add the water chestnuts, green onions, salt and pepper to taste, and cook for about 2 minutes, or until tender. Taste filling and make any necessary flavor adjustments, i.e. more soy sauce, hoisin, pepper, etc.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of the mixture into the lettuce leaves to serve.
