Description
Asian-spiced chicken over a giant bed of lettuce. Inspired by fun lettuce wraps, this is much simpler. Just place the toppings on top of the greens, no rolling or wrapping required!
Ingredients
Scale
- Dressing:
- 3 Tbsp rice vinegar

Instructions
- Dressing: In a small dish, whisk all ingredients together until combined. Adjust flavor to taste and set aside.
- Chicken: Spray a medium to large skillet with coconut oil cooking spray (or your favorite), and heat to a medium heat. Add the ground chicken breast and cook stirring occasionally for about 3-5 minutes. Next, add the bell pepper and water chestnuts. Cook for about 2 more minutes.
