Ingredients
Peanut Satay
- 1 cup coconut milk from a can
- 3 tablespoons All-Natural Peanut Butter
- 1 tablespoon EACH: brown sugar, fish sauce, and soy sauce gluten-free if needed
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
The Sauce
- ¼ cup EACH: honey, chicken stock, and soy sauce gluten-free if needed
- 1 tablespoon EACH: cornstarch, sesame oil, and rice vinegar
The Thai Lettuce Wraps
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 small onion minced
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- ½ teaspoon each: salt and pepper
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 medium carrot diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper diced
- 14 ounce can baby corn drained and cut into bite-sized pieces
- ½ cup chopped green onions cut on a diagonal
- ¼ cup cilantro
- Bibb lettuce or butter lettuce to serve
- Lime, cilantro, chopped peanuts to garnish
Instructions
- Add the coconut milk, peanut butter, brown sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, and sriracha to a small pot over medium heat. Whisk well and then let it heat until it thickens. Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the lime juice.
- Make the sauce next by whisking the ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Heat the sesame oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chicken, onion, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper and cook until the chicken is no longer pink and any liquid has evaporated from the pan, about 7 minutes.
- Add the carrot and bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the corn and the sauce and stir until the sauce is bubbly and thick. Stir in the green onions and cilantro.
- Fill the lettuce wraps and then top with some satay sauce and any or all of the garnishes.
