Stir-Fry Lettuce Chicken Wraps

Ingredients

Aromatics:

  • 9 tbsp Minced Ginger
  • 3 tbsp Minced Garlic
  • 3 tbsp Green Onions
  • 1 tbsp Chili Flakes
  • 6 tbsp Kikkoman® Toasted Sesame Oil

Stir-Fried Minced Chicken

  • 2 tbsp Kikkoman® Toasted Sesame Oil
  • 2 tbsp Peanut Oil
  • Aromatic Recipe (Above)
  • 6 lbs Minced or ground chicken, can be breast or leg meat, or combination

Directions

  1. Heat peanut oil and sesame oil in a large saute pan over medium heat.
  2. Add aromatics and saute until soft and aromatic.
  3. Add chicken to oil and aromatic mixture and “chop” into small/fine pieces while it’s cooking. Stir as needed. Cook chicken until it’s fully cooked and reaches 165 degrees.
  4. Allow chicken to fully cool and refrigerate.
  5. Add panko to oil and ginger mixture and stir to coat panko and continue stirring to toast the panko. Stir constantly and don’t leave unattended as the panko will burn.
  6. Depending on size of available pans, this recipe can be completed in 2 or 3 batches.

Lettuce Cup Assembly:

  1. Reheat fully cooked chicken in a saute pan in small batches as needed throughout the event. Add stir-fry sauce to coat and season the chicken.
  2. Arrange a lettuce cup (this can be a small butter leaf cup or romaine leaves cut in half or thirds crosswise) in a sample cup.
  3. Spoon approximately 2 tbsp or 1-ox cooked chicken into each lettuce cup and garnish with minced scallions or toasted sesame seeds.
