Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Ground chicken breast (99% lean, no added fat)
- 4 leaves Romaine or butter lettuce leaves (large, washed)
- 2 tablespoons Onion (finely chopped)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium soy sauce (or Bragg's Liquid Aminos)
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red chili flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Fresh cilantro (chopped, optional for garnish)
- 1 piece Lime wedge (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly soft. Use a small amount of water if needed to prevent sticking.
Add the ground chicken breast to the skillet and break it into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks.
Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes, or until fully cooked and no longer pink.
Stir in the soy sauce (or Bragg's Liquid Aminos), rice vinegar, crushed red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken with the seasonings.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Adjust spices to your preference, adding more chili flakes if desired.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
Spoon equal portions of the chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf, forming small wraps.
If desired, garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with a lime wedge on the side for an extra zing.
Enjoy your healthy and flavorful Spicy Lettuce Wraps as part of your HCG Phase 2 meal plan!
