Chicken Lettuce Wraps – Freezer Cooking Recipe

February 15, 2011 by Tiffany

The filling for these lettuce wraps is perfect for making ahead and freezing. I see this becoming one of my vacation food recipes.

The chicken is seasoned with garlic, soy sauce and some vinegar. Water chestnuts and green onions add to the flavors. I based the recipe on Spicy Garlic Chicken Pizza, another winning freezer recipe.

The chicken filling would also be great served over rice, but we liked the crunch of the lettuce.

Any recipe that calls for cutting raw chicken will require a sharp knife. My favorite knife comes from Rada Cutlery. It’s called Cook’s Knife and it costs just $9.20. Frugal and sharp – I love it!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

A few weeks ago I invited readers to join me in a challenge to eat from the freezer and pantry for a week. During that challenge I found that I had chicken, rice, hoisin sauce and water chestnuts on hand. They seemed like the perfect combination, but I didn’t have a recipe that involved all of them. This week I decided to make up my own. I added two ingredients to the four I already had. It resulted in a flavorful wrap that is perfect for hot summer weather.
