  • Spoon warm chicken mixture into butter lettuce leaves.

  • Serve immediately, optionally with rice or cauliflower fried rice on the side.

Notes

Use a food processor to speed chopping but avoid turning ingredients into a paste. Store chicken mixture and lettuce separately in airtight containers in fridge up to 5 days. Reheat filling in skillet, serve fresh lettuce. Freezing filling is possible for up to 1 month.
