How to Make Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps
- In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic, ginger, and chilies and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and honey. Cook for 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Stir in the water chestnuts, carrots, and green onions. Cook for another 2 minutes until heated through.
- Stir in the crispy noodles just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more soy sauce, honey, or chili to your liking.
- Spoon the chicken mixture into crisp lettuce cups and serve immediately. Garnish with extra green onions, if desired.
