Gluten Free Lettuce Wraps

One of our favorite dinners!




2-3 chicken breasts

1/2 T oil (olive is great but sesame is best)

1 zuchini (chopped)

1 large carrot (not the baby carrots)

1 can waterchestnuts (chopped)

1/2 onion (chopped)

1 clove garlic (chopped)

Fresh grated ginger root (this is to taste, but about 1t)

1/2 Cup Gluten Free soy sauce (must be labeled GF!)



1.Cut the chicken into small pieces (smaller than a dime).

*I love using the kitchen shears to cut up my chicken so I don't get a cutting board all dirty from raw chicken! (Plus you can find them super cheap, even at the Dollar store!)


2. Cook in a large pan or wok with the oil.


3. Add onion and garlic, cook unitl the onion is clear.


4. Add ginger, soy sauce, zuchini and carrot. I like to use the small grater or the peeler for the carrot to keep it from being overwhelming.


5. Cook until desired texture for zuchini. Ususally 1-2 minutes.



I like to either add the sesame seeds in with the veggies or put on at the end, how much you use is a preference thing.



Serve with Sticky rice and lettuce!



You can add any other veggies you like to this too. Sometimes I put in mushrooms, yellow squash, a little green onion, cabbage, or celery.
