Love these for Game Day! Spicy Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Course: Appetizer, dinner, Lunch, Main Course
Cuisine: Asian

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 1 tsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 scallions, white and pale green parts only, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • kosher salt
  • Bibb lettuce leaves, lime wedges, soy sauce and tender herbs like cilantro for serving

Method
 

  1. Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, and 1 Tbsp. sambal oelek in a small bowl; set aside.

  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium. Add scallions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened (a little color is okay), about 3 minutes. Add chicken and lightly season with salt. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon and tossing occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, 5–7 minutes. Add reserved soy sauce mixture and cook, tossing occasionally, until liquid is almost completely reduced, about 2 minutes.

  3. Serve chicken mixture with lettuce, herbs, lime wedges, and more sambal oelek for making lettuce wraps.
