Instructions
Instructions
Heat that tablespoon of olive oil in your pressure cooker pot on medium heat first. Let it get slick and warm before anything else.
Add your diced onion, minced garlic, and ginger. Stir them around while they get soft and super fragrant. You’ll smell it quick.
Toss in the ground chicken. Break it apart with your spoon so it browns evenly, not clumping up. That tender pull comes from this step.
Once chicken’s losing its pink, stir in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and that sesame oil. Mix it good to coat everything in flavor.
Drain and chop your water chestnuts then add them with sliced green onions. Give it a good stir and let them warm through about 2-3 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remember a little goes a long way here with the sauces.
Hit the quick release to drop the pressure once cooked. Open the lid after steam cues slow and float valve drops.
Use a spoon to scoop chicken mix into butter lettuce leaves. Serve right away while it’s fresh and warm for that perfect bite.
Notes
Serve immediately for best lettuce texture. Store leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for 3-4 days.
