Asian Lettuce Wraps

Ron and I were both quite impressed with how much these lettuce wraps reminded us of our favorite appetizer at P.F. Chang's. Definitely don't skip the sauce...it puts the final touch on the wraps! This recipe only takes about 15 minutes to put together, so it would be great to serve as an appetizer for company.

Asian Lettuce Wraps

Cooking Spray
3/4 pound ground chicken
1/2 cup broccoli slaw
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 tablespoons diced water chesnuts
3 tablespoons light sesame ginger dressing (I used wishbone brand)
19 medium boston lettuce leaves

Sauce:
1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce or to taste (such as the one put out by Huy Fong Foods, sold at most large grocery stores in the international section)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce

1. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, slaw, and garlic; cook 6 minutes or until chicken is browned, stirring to crumble. Reduce heat to low, and stir in red pepper, water chestnuts, and dressing. Cook until thoroughly heated.
2. Fill each lettuce leaf with 2 tablespoons chicken mixture. Top with sauce. Serve immediately. Makes 20 lettuce wraps.
