Ingredients Needed
Butter Lettuce: I love using fresh butter lettuce for the wraps because they add a delicious crunch!
Ground Chicken: I always look for high quality and organic meat when I can! Also, I like to make sure the ingredients are simple and there are no added oils. Look for chicken that is just chicken and possibly rosemary.
Carrots: Carrots add a nice crunch into this recipe! Plus, they are packed with nutrients including beta carotene and antioxidants.
Green Onions: These green onions add extra color, flavor and freshness into these Thai chicken lettuce wraps!
Ginger: I love the flavor that ginger adds to these lettuce wraps. Ginger is also amazing for digestion and has personally helped me immensely.
Garlic: I am a huge garlic fan. I add it to basically every recipe! Garlic contains antioxidants and is loaded with health benefits!
Sunflower Butter: I love using sunflower butter here, but feel free to use nut butter. I love grabbing all of my grocery staples at Thrive Market because they have amazing options, prices and it gets delivered right to your doorstep. Grab your first box for 40% off by using my link!
Coconut Aminos: I love the flavor this adds to the recipe! It is also soy-free and gluten-free!
