Ingredients
Ingredients List:
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- ½ white onion, finely chopped
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 tbsp Kikkoman Soy Sauce
- ½ tsp Kikkoman Sesame Oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Bibb lettuce
- Julienned carrots

Peanut Sauce
- ½ cup Wild Friends Creamy Peanut Butter

- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp Marukan Organic Rice Vinegar
- 1 tbsp Huy Fong Chili Garlic Sauce
- 1 tsp Kikkoman Sesame Oil

Preparation
- Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the onion. Saute, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the ground chicken and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat, until it’s almost cooked through. Drain any excess liquid from the pan, then stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the peanut sauce, stirring in 2-4 tbsp water as needed for a drizzle-able consistency.
- Spoon the chicken mixture into the lettuce leaves and top with desired toppings such as shredded carrot, green onions, and peanuts. Drizzle with or dip in the peanut sauce and enjoy!
