Everything you love about takeout lettuce wraps, made fresh in under 20 minutes. Savoury ground chicken, mushrooms, zucchini, and carrots are tossed in a bold tamari-style sauce and piled into crisp lettuce cups for the perfect balance of crunch and flavour.

Fresh, crunchy, and packed with umami, they're proof that weeknight dinners don't have to play it safe.

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg Chicken Fried Rice Seasoning
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 lb (450 g) ground chicken
  • 1 small zucchini
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots
  • 16 lettuce leaves, about 1 head

Preparation

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together seasoning, soy sauce, and water.
  2. In Wok, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and seasoning mixture, stir-fry to break up chunks. Cook until chicken is browned, about 4 min.
  3. Meanwhile, dice zucchini and coarsely chop mushrooms. Add zucchini, mushrooms, and carrots to wok. Stir-fry 4 min, or until chicken has cooked through and veggies have softened.
  4. To assemble, make eight stacks of two lettuce leaves. Top each stack with about 1/2 cup of chicken and veggie filling. Top with your favourite toppings, if desired.
