INSTRUCTION TO MAKE CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS | RECOPE 2023   

Step 1
Make the sauce Grab : a small bowl and whisk together the sauce ingredients until fully combined. 

Step 2
Cook the chicken : Heat the oil in a large skillet and place it over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the chicken and break it apart. Cook the chicken for 2-3 minutes until it’s fully cooked and no longer pink.

While the chicken is cooking, separate the romaine leaves and wash them if needed. Discard any brown or wilting leaves. 

Step 3
Stir fry the vegetables : Push the cooked chicken to one side of the pan and add the chestnuts, bell pepper, garlic, and onion. Stir fry the veggies for several minutes until the onions become slightly translucent.

Step 4
Assemble the wraps : Once the veggies are done cooking, add the sauce and let everything simmer together for 1-2 minutes. Mix the chicken with a spatula to coat it evenly in the sauce. Place the filling in the lettuce cups and serve immediately.
