Chicken Lettuce Wraps

This past weekend I went to PF Chang's for the first time with some of my besties. We ordered chicken lettuce wraps and they were awesome! I decided I would try to make them this week for dinner. Over the past few weeks we have been doing the 21 day fix in our house (at least on the weekdays)! If you haven't heard of it you should look it up, it comes with a meal plan and 30 minute work out dvd. If nothing else it helps you eat the correct portions. But either way this recipe for dinner fits perfect into the 21 day fix diet since it is high in protein and low no in carbs; but it will become a staple in our non diet life as well. 

This meal is also super quick it will only take about 15-20 minutes to make (beat that rachael ray haha)! 




What You'll Need
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground chicken 
2 cloves garlic (diced) 
1/2 onion (diced) 
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1/2 tablespoon garlic chili 
salt and pepper
1 head of butter lettuce


What To Do: 

  • Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat, add ground chicken, season with salt and pepper and brown in the pan. Remove any excess fat then sir in onion, garlic, hoisin, soy, rice wine vinegar and garlic chili. Cook for another 3-5 minutes make sure to sir the sauce!
  • Serve up with lettuce and rice if desired! I served this right in the pan so everyone could make their own chicken lettuce wraps!
