This easy lettuce wrap recipe features ginger hoisin ground chicken and is a delicious, quick, and healthy meal. Every time we make them, we can’t help but dance a little because they taste amazing! They’ve become a family favorite. Feel free to substitute other ground meat for the chicken, like turkey or pork. You can also use shredded firm or extra firm tofu (I use a box grater) or plant-based crumbles.
Ingredient:
- 1 head Bibb or Romaine lettuce
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil like sunflower oil
- 1 pound (450g) ground chicken, at least 7% fat
