These chicken lettuce wraps are absolutely DE-LI-CIOUS! Make them once and they will stay in your weekly rotation forever. Gluten-free of course!
8-10 large iceberg salad leaves
500g chicken mince
1 small red capsicum, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cm fresh ginger, finely grated
1/2 tsp dry chili flakes (optional)
2 tbsp tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
Dressing:
1/4 cup tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
juice of 2 limes
1 tsp of honey
a pinch of minced garlic* (I just take a pinch from the garlic I minced for the chicken mix)
a pinch of grated ginger* (same here, just use a little bit of ginger you already grated for the meat)
1 tsp of sesame oil
coriander leaves to garnish
You can sprinkle some crushed roasted peanuts for an even more authentic flavour.
Only use dry chillies if not cooking for kids, unless of course, your little ones are used to spicy food.
You can prepare the chicken mix and the dressing a day or two before and store them in separate air-tight containers. Just re-heat the chicken mix in a wok or frying pan before serving. Perfect meal-prep idea.
