1 tablespoon olive oil <br> 1 pound ground chicken (chicken breast minced works too) <br> 2 cloves garlic, minced <br> 1 onion, diced finely <br> 1/4 cup hoisin sauce (halal-certified or homemade versions available) <br> 2 tablespoons soy sauce (choose a low-sodium, halal-certified brand) <br> 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar <br> 1 tablespoon ginger, minced <br> 1 teaspoon Sriracha, or to taste (optional) <br> 1 (8 ounce) can whole water chestnuts, drained and diced <br> 2 green onions, thinly sliced <br> Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste <br> 1 head iceberg lettuce, leaves carefully separated to form cups <br> Optional garnish: extra green onions, sesame seeds
<div class="method_step"><div class="method_num">1</div>Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned, making sure to crumble the chicken as it cooks to get nice, small pieces perfect for the filling of the wraps. This should take about 3-5 minutes.</div> <br> <div class="method_step"><div class="method_num">2</div>Stir in garlic, onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and ginger into the chicken. Cook for 1-2 minutes until onions have become translucent and the mixture is well combined and fragrant. This combination of flavors is key to getting that signature PF Chang's taste.</div> <br> <div class="method_step"><div class="method_num">3</div>Add in the diced water chestnuts and green onions, season with salt and pepper to taste, then stir into the mixture. Let everything cook together for another 2 minutes. This step adds crunch and freshness to your filling.</div> <br> <div class="method_step"><div class="method_num">4</div>To serve, spoon several tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of a lettuce leaf, almost like a taco. If you want to, add extra garnishes like more green onions or a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top for that extra bit of flavor and texture.</div> <br> <div class="method_step"><div class="method_num">5</div>Finally, fold the lettuce over the filling, kind of like how you would with a soft taco, and enjoy immediately. The contrast between the warm, flavorful filling and the cool, crisp lettuce is absolutely delightful.</div>
