  Ingredients:

1 pound ground chicken breast
½ medium onion, minced
Dash each salt and black pepper
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1-inch knob fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2-½ tablespoons soy sauce
½ tablespoon water
1 tablespoon natural peanut butter
½ tablespoon honey
1 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce (or more if you like it hotter)
Dash freshly ground black pepper
3 green onions, chopped
½ of an 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
¼ cup chopped peanuts
10 to 12 large outer lettuce leaves, rinsed and patted dry

Directions:

Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add chicken, onion, and the dash each salt and pepper; cook until chicken is nearly done, stirring often to break up the meat. Add minced garlic and ginger; continue cooking until chicken is no longer pink.

Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl combine sesame oil, soy sauce, water, peanut butter, honey, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, and a dash pepper. Microwave 20 seconds, then stir until smooth. Add to the skillet and stir to combine.

Add green onions and water chestnuts to skillet and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the onions are soft and the water chestnuts are heated through.

Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and serve with cold lettuce leaves. Makes 2 to 3 servings.
