Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large chicken breasts
1/2 white onion
6 garlic cloves
1 -2 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
3 -4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 -2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 -2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 large leaves iceberg lettuce

Steps:

  • Cut chicken breasts into thin strips. Add butter to skillet and melt over medium to high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook 1 minute to get the flavors flowing into the butter. Add chicken, hoisin sauce and cook until chicken is white on the outside but still pink on the inside (approximately 5 minutes). Add the chinese five spice, black pepper and soy sauce and cook another 5 minutes on medium to high heat, reduce temperature and simmer covered 5-10 minutes so the chicken becomes tender.
  • Fold into lettuce wraps!
  • This is very filling, low carb and low calorie. Enjoy!
