P.F. Chang's Chicken Lettuce Wraps {Copycat Recipe}
P.F. Chang's Chicken Lettuce Wraps combine ground chicken with a flavorful mix of hoisin, soy, garlic, and ginger, plus crunchy water chestnuts for texture. Cooked in a skillet with sesame and olive oils, the filling is seasoned and served inside crisp butter lettuce leaves for a fresh, handheld dish. The combination of savory and slightly spicy ingredients creates a balanced and satisfying bite, ideal for wrapping and dipping.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 pound ground chicken I’ve also used ground turkey with good results
- 1 onion diced small, medium/large sweet Vidalia or yellow onion
- ⅓ cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce low-sodium
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Chili garlic sauce or to taste (sriracha may be substituted, Asian
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger or to taste, or 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
- water chestnuts drained and diced small
- 2 to 3 green onions sliced into thin rounds
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste, freshly ground
- butter lettuce for serving, leaves
Instructions
- To a large skillet, add the oils, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat until chicken is cooked through; stir intermittently to crumbly while cooking.
- Add the onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, chili garlic sauce, stir to combine, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until onion is soft and translucent and most of the liquid has been absorbed; stir intermittently.
- Add the garlic, ginger, stir to combine, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Add the water chestnuts, green onions, salt and pepper to taste, and cook for about 2 minutes, or until tender. Taste filling and make any necessary flavor adjustments, i.e. more soy sauce, hoisin, pepper, etc.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of the mixture into the lettuce leaves to serve.
Notes
- Store leftover filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days to maintain freshness.
- Adjust the chili garlic sauce amount to control the spiciness of the filling.
- Butter lettuce works well for wrapping due to its pliability and tender texture.
