Ingredients

• 1 1/2-2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch slices
• ½ cup cornstarch
• ¼ cup vegetable oil plus extra for the griddle
• ¾ cup soy sauce
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• ½ cup water
• 2 heads romaine lettuce, washed
• Cooked white rice, for serving (Optional)
• Sesame seeds, to garnish (Optional)

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken and cornstarch. Toss until all the chicken is coated. Add extra cornstarch if needed to make sure all chicken is coated.
2. In a saucepan or microwave-safe bowl combine the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Heat until all the sugar is dissolved.
3. Preheat the griddle to medium-high heat and drizzle a thin layer of vegetable oil. Add the griddle to the griddle, and cook for 7 minutes or until the edges are very crispy.
4. Add the sauce and half the sliced green onions to the chicken and let the sauce thicken for about 1 minute.
5. Remove the chicken from the heat once fully cooked. Serve in individual lettuce leaves and garnish with sesame seeds.
6. Optional: You can also serve with cooked white rice in the lettuce wraps. Just add the rice, chicken, and sauce on top.
