Chicken Breast Lettuce Wrap Recipe

Servings: 4

Ingredients
½ cup hoisin sauce
½ cup water
10 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast, diced small
8 ounces tofu, extra firm, diced small
½ cup carrot, shredded
¼ cup scallion, diced
12 medium butter-lettuce leaves

Instructions
1. Mix hoisin sauce and water together and set aside.
2. Cook chicken breast in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
3. When chicken is almost done, add tofu and brown lightly.
4. Pour hoisin mixture on top of the chicken and tofu, stirring until well coated. Then, top with carrots and scallions.
5. Spoon mixture into butter lettuce leaves.

Tips
1. Although I think butter lettuce makes the best cups, romaine or iceberg lettuce can be substituted.
2. You can use stir fry sauce, peanut sauce, or even teriyaki in place of hoisin sauce.

Meal Prep
1. The entire meal can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Just leave the butter lettuce on the side until you are ready to eat.
2. If you prefer to prep by cooking all ingredients separately, that will work here too. Cook your chicken and tofu first, then dice and toss it in the sauce.
