Chicken Lettuce Wraps
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup carrots, sliced
1/2 cup mushrooms, diced
1 cup water chestnuts, diced
1/3 cup edamame, shelled
3-4 tablespoons Soyaki marinade (I like Trader Joe's Island Soyaki)
1 head of lettuce (any variety you prefer)
1 sliced green onion, for garnish
Wasabi Lime Dressing
1/4 cup lightly seasoned rice vinegar
1/4 teaspoon wasabi paste, more to taste if you like
juice of 1 small lime
1 pinch sea salt

1
Heat vegetable oil in large saute pan. Add minced garlic and saute until fragrant.
2
Sear chicken breasts in pan on medium heat to build a nice golden crust and reduce to medium low to finish, keeping the chicken tender and moist.
3
Remove chicken from pan and set aside to rest.
4
Saute onions, carrots, mushrooms and water chestnuts in chicken drippings, adding additional oil if needed. Cook only a few minutes on medium low heat, so that veggies are still slightly crisp.
5
Dice rested chicken into bite-size pieces and add back into the pan along with edamame.
6
Reduce heat to low and finish with soyaki marinade. Allow to simmer until marinade is warmed through and chicken mixture is coated.
7
Rinse and dry lettuce leaves and fill with chicken mixture. Top with sliced green onion and prepared wasabi lime dressing, to taste.
8
Pack up your lettuce cups, filling and dressing. Brown bag it all and prepare to wow the office lunch crowd or your friends!
