Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of olive oil and let it warm up for about 30 seconds.
Add the minced garlic and fresh ginger to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Cook until the chicken is fully browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
While the chicken cooks, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked chicken in the skillet. Stir well to coat all the chicken evenly.
Add the chopped water chestnuts and red chili flakes (if using). Mix everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes to combine flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sliced green onions.
Carefully separate the lettuce leaves and wash them thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Spoon a portion of the chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf, dividing evenly into 8 wraps.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious chicken lettuce wraps!
