How can I prepare Kimchi Chicken Lettuce Wraps

 Kimchi Chicken Lettuce Wraps


Kimchi Chicken Lettuce Wraps


Time: 25 minutes 

Pick ingredients that pack a powerful punch above their weight for the quickest route to flavor. For a fresh spread that cooks in only 15 minutes, this weeknight meal relies on just five basic ingredients: ground chicken, lettuce, rice, and kimchi. Hoisin provides sweetness. This dish's bold and strong kimchi takes center stage rather than blending in. Although kimchi is different in every jar, its salty, spicy, and sour characteristics are predominant. The remaining of the chopped fermented cabbage will be used as a garnish after cooking off a portion of it with the chicken to tame its flavor and texture. Hoisin sauce, which adds sweetness, color, and glossiness, is used to glaze the chicken in order to balance the assertiveness of the kimchi. Place the rice, greens, kimchi, and chicken mixture in separate bowls.


INGREDIENTS

Yield:

4 servings

1½ tightly packed cups store-bought or homemade kimchi (about 10 ounces)

2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil

1 pound ground chicken (preferably dark meat)

Salt and black pepper

3 tablespoons hoisin sauce, plus more for serving

Lettuce leaves (preferably 2 heads bibb lettuce or 1 large head red-leaf lettuce)

3 to 4cups warm cooked short-grain rice.


PREPARATION For Kimchi Chicken Lettuce Wraps


Step 1

Finely chop the kimchi (or pulse in a food processor); transfer about two-thirds to a small serving bowl, reserving the remainder for the chicken.

Step 2

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook, crumbling it occasionally with a spoon, until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the hoisin sauce and then the reserved kimchi, and stir occasionally until chicken is glossy and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Add the chicken mixture, lettuce leaves and rice to separate serving bowls. Assemble lettuce wraps by first adding a spoonful of rice, then chicken mixture and then kimchi; devour swiftly. Serve with more hoisin, if desired, for extra sweetness.
