Directions

Prep 10 minCook 10 min

1
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground chicken and cook, breaking it up, until no longer pink and lightly browned, 3–5 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
2
Add the onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant and the onion begins to soften, 2–3 minutes.
3
Stir in the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and sriracha. Simmer 1–2 minutes to coat the meat and reduce slightly.
4
Fold in the drained and chopped water chestnuts and the scallions. Cook until just tender, 1–2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
5
Serve the warm chicken mixture in lettuce leaves, wrapping each like a taco.
