2 pounds ground chicken lean
6 cloves garlic chopped
6 ounces shitake mushrooms chopped
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup duck sauce
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 cup water
scallions sliced

1
In a bowl stir together the soy sauce, water, duck sauce, hoisin and sesame oil.
2
In a large saute pan, over medium heat, add the olive oil, garlic and mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms have cooked down a bit and the garlic is fragrant.
3
Add in the chicken and break up the meat as it is cooking with either a wooden spoon or my favorite a potato masher.
4
When the chicken is mostly cooked through go ahead and stir in the sauce and cook a few more minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
5
Shut the heat and stir in a couple handfuls of scallion.
6
I served all the fixings on a platter... the lettuce leaves, carrots, shredded cabbage and cilantro.
7
Add a bit of chicken to the lettuce and top with all those gorgeous colored veggies.
