Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the ground chicken to the skillet. Cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks (about 5-7 minutes).

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Stir in the diced bell pepper, grated carrot, and sliced green onion. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Season the Mixture

    Pour in the soy sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Wraps

    Remove the skillet from heat. Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture into lettuce leaves and serve immediately.
