Make the best P.F. Chang’s Chicken Lettuce Wraps at home. This copycat recipe uses ground chicken in a savory sauce, ready in under 30 minutes, making it a perfect low-carb, high-protein weeknight dinner or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped water chestnuts
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped mushrooms (white or cremini)
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions, plus more for garnish
  • 1 head butter lettuce or iceberg lettuce, leaves separated and washed
  • Optional: Sweet chili sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground chicken to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it is fully browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add the chopped water chestnuts, mushrooms, ginger, and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, and water to create the sauce.
  5. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables in the skillet. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
  6. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the filling.
  7. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the 1/4 cup of chopped green onions.
  8. Arrange the lettuce cups on a serving platter. Spoon the savory chicken filling into the center of each lettuce leaf.
  9. Garnish with extra green onions and serve immediately with sweet chili sauce on the side, if desired.

Notes

  • Use butter lettuce for a tender wrap, or iceberg lettuce for a crispier texture. Make sure the lettuce leaves are completely dry before filling.
  • For a low carb chicken wraps option, skip the brown sugar or use a sugar substitute.
  • This recipe is great for meal prep; store the filling and lettuce separately and assemble just before eating.
