Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground chicken
• 2 tbsp Avocado oil
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp Fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tbsp Fish sauce
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for soy-free)
• 1 tsp Erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener)
• 0.5 tsp Red chili flakes
• 1 tbsp Lime juice
• 2 Green onions, sliced
• 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
• 12 leaves Butter lettuce leaves (or any sturdy lettuce like romaine or iceberg)
• 0.5 Cucumber, julienned
• 0.25 cup Carrots, julienned (optional for a slightly higher carb count)
• 2 tbsp Crushed peanuts or chopped almonds (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the avocado oil.

Step 2

Once hot, add the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the ground chicken to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes.

Step 4

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce by whisking together fish sauce, soy sauce (or coconut aminos), erythritol, red chili flakes, and lime juice in a small bowl.

Step 5

Pour the sauce over the cooked chicken and stir to combine. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sliced green onions and chopped cilantro.

Step 7

Prepare the lettuce cups by arranging the butter lettuce leaves on a serving plate. Spoon the chicken mixture evenly into each lettuce leaf.

Step 8

Top with julienned cucumber and optional garnishes like carrots, crushed peanuts, or chopped almonds for added crunch.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy these fresh, keto-friendly Thai chicken lettuce wraps!
