Delicious Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps with Bold Flavors: A Fresh and Flavorful Meal

Serving: These Thai chicken lettuce wraps are perfect on their own or paired with a side of steamed rice or a light salad.
Storage: Store any leftover chicken mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can use it in additional wraps, or serve it over rice or noodles. The lettuce leaves are best used fresh, so store them separately and use within a day.
Variants:

Vegetarian Option: Replace the ground chicken with tofu or tempeh for a vegetarian version that still packs a flavorful punch.
Spicy Peanut Sauce: Drizzle a spicy peanut sauce over the wraps for an extra layer of creamy, nutty flavor.
Extra Crunch: Add thinly sliced cucumber or water chestnuts for an additional crunch in the filling.
FAQ:

Can I use a different type of lettuce?
Yes, you can use any type of large lettuce with sturdy leaves, such as romaine, iceberg, or even kale. Just make sure the leaves are large enough to hold the filling.
Can I prepare these in advance?
While the filling can be made in advance, it’s best to assemble the wraps just before serving so that the lettuce stays fresh and crisp.
How can I make the wraps less spicy?
If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce or omit the chili paste and use a smaller amount of lime juice and fish sauce.
