Copycat PF Changs Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps




Have you ever been to PF Changs? It's an upscale Chinese restaurant. I love going there! Chinese food is my favorite!!! One of the dishes that they are famously known for is their Chicken Lettuce wraps. I've had it, and its very tasty. Finger food is always fun, right?



I have seen recipes for this online, but they all use Asian ingredients that I don't have in my pantry. This uses ingredients that most of us have. In PF Changs, this is an appetizer. I served this for dinner with some rice and sauteed veggies.

Enjoy! :)




Ingredients
3 thinly sliced green onions (Cut the onion in half. Cook the white half of the onion and save the other part for garnish.)
½ cup small diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon of oil
1 pound ground chicken

Sauce
½ cup soy sauce
1-3 teaspoons of  sriracha(depends on how your spice tolerance. If you don't have any sriracha, use some red pepper flake)
2 tablespoons of honey
1 tablespoon of peanut butter
1 tablespoon of brown sugar
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
¼ cup of finely diced cashews

Romaine Lettuce


  1. Saute the half the onions and red bell pepper for 2-3 minutes until slightly cooked.
  2. Add the ground chicken and saute until fully cooked.
  3. Place all the ingredients for the sauce and whisk until fully incorporated.
  4. Add this to the pan and cook for another minute or so. The sauce should get slightly thickened.
  5. Place in a bowl and top with the green onions and cashews.
  6. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes. Serve with lettuce.
