    Sriracha Chicken with Peanuts in Lettuce Wraps
    • 4Servings

    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons peanut or canola oil
    • 1 pound ground chicken
    • 2 leeks, white and light-green parts, quartered lengthwise and chopped crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
    • 2 red finger chiles, Fresno chiles or jalapenos, seeded and chopped
    • 2-inch piece ginger, peeled and grated
    • 4 large cloves garlic, sliced or chopped
    • Pepper
    • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
    • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
    • 2 tablespoons (or more) sriracha
    • 1 cup dry-roasted peanuts, preferably Planters, coarsely chopped
    • 2 heads Bibb lettuce, leaves separated

    Preparation

    In a large skillet, heat the oil, two turns of the pan, over high. Add the chicken and cook, breaking up with a spoon and stirring often, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

    Add the leeks, chiles, ginger and garlic; season with pepper. Stir-fry until the leeks are tender, about 3 minutes. Add the hoisin, soy sauce, peanut butter and vinegar. Stir until the sauce coats the chicken, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sriracha (add more if you want more heat) and mix in the peanuts. Serve immediately with lettuce leaves for wrapping.
