Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 cup bell peppers, finely chopped (choose a mix of red, yellow, and green for color)

1 small onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced

1/4 cup sweet chili sauce

1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Salt and pepper to taste

1 head of butter or iceberg lettuce, leaves separated

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

1/4 cup roasted peanuts, crushed (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Heat the Oil: Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat, allowing it to become hot but not smoking.

    Sauté Aromatics: Once the oil is hot, add the finely chopped onion and bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté these vegetables for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender and start to soften.

      Cook the Chicken: Increase the heat slightly and add the ground chicken to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently to break up the meat, until it is nicely browned and cooked through with no pink remaining.

        Add Garlic and Ginger: Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional minute until they release their aromatic fragrance, being careful not to let them burn.

          Mix in Sauce: In a separate small bowl, combine the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Pour this sauce over the cooked chicken mixture in the skillet, stirring well to ensure everything is evenly coated. Let it simmer on low heat for another 2-3 minutes for the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Prepare Lettuce Wraps: While the chicken mixture is simmering, wash the lettuce leaves under cool water and carefully separate them, choosing the larger, more pliable leaves for easy wrapping.

              Assemble Wraps: To assemble, spoon a generous portion of the chicken mixture into the center of each lettuce leaf, ensuring you have a balanced amount to fold and wrap.

                Garnish: Sprinkle the top of each filled lettuce wrap with chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts for an added layer of flavor and crunch.

                  Serve: Serve the wraps on a platter with lime wedges on the side, allowing everyone to squeeze fresh lime juice for an extra burst of freshness. Enjoy the taste of vibrant flavors wrapped in crisp lettuce!
