So as I’m sure most of you know prego ladies are huge fans of craving random food. Well my wife, Nikaila, is no exception. Unfortunately the item she was craving last week was PF Changs Lettuce Wraps and obviously we don’t have one in town. So it’s up to super husband (thats me in case you were wondering) to create a homemade version. Not just any homemade version though, we’re gonna go paleo with it. So here it is, my paleo friendly, craving satisfying Asian Lettuce Wraps:

Ingredients
1 Head Butter Lettuce
1 Pound Ground Chicken Breast
1 Onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp Minced Garlic
1 Tbsp Wheat Free Soy Sauce
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (paleo friendly recipe)
2 tsp Ginger
1 Tbsp Rice Wine Vinegar
1 Bunch Green Onion, finely chopped
2 tsp sesame oil
Asian Chili Sauce to desired hotness

Directions
Rinse lettuce leaves, keeping them whole. Set aside.

Cook chicken in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring often to break up the meat. Add onion, garlic, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, ginger, vinegar and chili sauce. Cook until the meat is crumbled and brown. Add green onions. Cook until onions begin to wilt, about 2 minutes.

Stir in sesame oil. Arrange lettuce leaves on the outer edge of a platter. Spoon meat mixture in center. Allow diners to spoon meat mixture into lettuce leaves and eat like a taco.
