Simple San Choy Bau image

This is a pared-down version of san choy bau that is really easy to make but still very tasty. I like to serve mine with sesame noodles (one of my gf's favorites).

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 lbs ground chicken
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (3 1/2 ounce) can water chestnuts, finely chopped
3 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
6 scallions
4 lettuce leaves
oyster sauce, as topping, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a wok or frying pan. Add chicken and garlic and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, making sure to use a wooden spoon to break up any lumpy bits that form.
  • Reduce the heat and drain any excess liquid, then add all of the remaining ingredients except the lettuce leaves.
  • Trim the lettuce leaves to form a cup shape and divide the chicken mixture among them. Top with additional oyster sauce, to taste, if desired, and serve hot (with rice or, ideally, sesame noodles).
