Ingredients

  • 1 head lettuce we used romaine
  • 1 1/2 lb chicken breasts (boneless, skinless) cubed

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp vinegar apple cider or rice
  • 1/2 tsp ginger powder or minced fresh
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Start cooking rice and vegetables if applicable. Separate the butter lettuce into 12 large leaves and set aside on a plate.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, ginger powder, garlic, vinegar and cornstarch.
  • Place a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add 1-2 tsp oil and cubed chicken.
  • Fry 2-3 minutes per side until nicely browned. If not browning, increase heat and continue for another minute.
  • Add sauce mixture to chicken and stir continuously until it thickens to coat the chicken. Remove from heat.
  • Place one large spoonful of teriyaki chicken into each lettuce leaf. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

-For the chicken to brown properly, there should be a bit of space between the pieces in the pan. Fry in batches if your pan is small or you're doubling the recipe.
