Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 head butter lettuce, leaves separated
  • Optional toppings: chopped peanuts, sriracha

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.
  2. Add chicken pieces to the bowl and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Add the sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.
  6. Stir in the green onions and cilantro.
  7. Spoon the chicken mixture into the prepared lettuce cups.
  8. Add any optional toppings you like.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
  • If you don’t have butter lettuce, romaine or iceberg lettuce also work well.
  • This recipe can be made ahead of time; store the chicken mixture separately from the lettuce cups.
