Ingredients
Instructions
Stir hoisin, vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger and garlic together in a small bowl.
Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; break into clumps using a wooden spoon. Cook, undisturbed, until browned on the bottom, about 8 minutes. Stir and continue to cook, breaking up the chicken into small pieces, until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. (Do not wipe the pan clean.)
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and mushrooms; cook, stirring often, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the chicken, water chestnuts and the reserved hoisin mixture; cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup scallions.
Place 1/4 cup chicken mixture in each lettuce leaf. Top with carrots and the remaining 1/4 cup scallions. Additional reporting by Carrie Myers and Jan Valdez
