P.F. Chang's-Style Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Finely chopped chicken and mushrooms make a filling that tucks into lettuce without tumbling everywhere. Cook off the liquid before adding the sauce. If the skillet looks soupy, give it another minute before you reach for the leaves.
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 18 minutes
Total Time 38 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • 1 cup finely chopped cremini mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup diced water chestnuts
  • 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1/2 cup sliced scallions
  • 12 butter lettuce leaves

Method
 

  1. Heat the neutral oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6 minutes, breaking it into small crumbles.
  2. Add the mushrooms and water chestnuts and cook for 5 minutes until their released liquid evaporates and the chicken reaches 165°F.
  3. Stir in the hoisin, soy sauce, rice vinegar and sesame oil and cook for 1 minute until the filling looks glossy, not wet.
  4. Fold in the scallions and remove the skillet from the heat.
  5. Spoon the warm filling into the 12 dry lettuce leaves and serve immediately.
