Ingredients
✓ 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (diced)
✓ 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
✓ 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
✓ 1 tablespoon soy sauce
✓ 1 teaspoon garlic (minced)
✓ 1 teaspoon ginger (minced)
✓ Salt and pepper (to taste)
✓ 1 head of butter lettuce (or iceberg lettuce, leaves separated)
✓ 1/2 cup shredded carrots
✓ 1/2 cup diced cucumber
✓ 1/4 cup green onions (sliced)
✓ Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
✓ Begin by slicing 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
✓ In a large bowl, mix 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon minced ginger with the diced chicken. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
✓ Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil; the oil should shimmer slightly.
✓ Add the marinated chicken to the hot skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the pieces are browned on all sides.
✓ Prepare your lettuce cups by separating a head of butter lettuce into individual leaves.
✓ Once the chicken has finished cooking, remove it from the skillet using tongs or a slotted spoon and place it onto each lettuce leaf.
✓ For extra flavor, sprinkle sesame seeds over the filled lettuce cups. Top with shredded carrots, diced cucumbers, and sliced green onions for added freshness.
✓ These Lettuce包裹 Teriyaki鸡块 are best served immediately while they’re still warm and crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.
Notes
Ensure the pan is fully heated before adding ingredients; this prevents sticking and promotes even cooking. The marinade ensures deep flavor penetration into the chicken pieces.
