I thought that maybe we could try a quick appetizer today, why not? You can add this to the list that now includes the party roast beef sandwiches recipe, roasted Italian tomatoes recipe and the steak bites with garlic butter recipe If you love your chicken too, then you are really going to enjoy these cashew chicken lettuce wraps.
I have this one saved under both chicken recipes and appetizer recipes. It is not just super easy to make, but it is also quick. Most of your time is taken up by the prep work, the actual cooking time is less than 10 minutes. I remember the one time, I made these for lunch and the gang was completely satisfied, without adding anything else to the menu. Stick to the fresh lettuce leaves for best results, I prefer to get mine straight from my vegetable garden.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Here’s What You’ll Need:
- boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- oyster sauce
- low-sodium soy sauce
- sesame oil or olive oil
- garlic
- fresh ginger
- chili paste
- raw cashews
- Boston lettuce leaves
- basil, sesame seeds (optional)
- ziploc bag
- grater
- large skillet
- cutting board
- sharp knife
You want your chicken nicely marinated for this recipe, therefore make sure it is evenly coated with the homemade marinade before allowing it to sit in the ziploc bag. When I have more time, I let it marinate for at least half an hour. Now all that’s left to do is a quick 5 minute stir fry of the chicken, herbs and spices. The cashews go into the skillet last and then you can spoon everything onto the lettuce leaves. As usual, the toppings are optional. Enjoy! 🙂
