These are so yummy! They taste really close to the lettuce wraps that you can order from that famous Asian restaurant chain. The number of servings will depend on if this is an appetizer or main course for you and how big you make them. If an appetizer, then maybe 6 servings; if a main dish, then 4 servings.

Ingredients

  • ½ pounds ground chicken: 1 piece
  • red bell pepper, cut into large dice: 1 piece
  • soy sauce: 0.5 cup
  • rice wine vinegar: 2 Tbsp (to taste)
  • fresh ginger: 1 Tbsp (grated)
  • dashes hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®): 5 piece
