Ingredients

1 pound Ground Chicken or turkey ($3)

1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil ($0.15)

2 Tablespoons Sesame Oil ($0.30)

3 Cloves Garlic ($0.20)

2 Teaspoons Ginger (negligible)

2 Green Onions ($0.15)

2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce ($0.30)

6-8 Leaves Iceberg Lettuce ($0.95)

2 Carrots ($0.41)

Directions

Rice Noodles

Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Fry

Once hot, add a small handful of thin rice noodles, which will fry instantly. Flip over and then remove from the oil immediately and set aside on a napkin lined plate.

Lettuce Wraps

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oils once hot and then add the ground chicken.

Cook over medium-high heat until chicken is almost cooked through; stirring intermittently with the meat chopper to properly crumble the meat.

Flavor

Add the garlic, ginger, green onions and soy sauce and stir well. Remove from heat and serve with rice noodles and lettuce. You can top it with some sweet chili sauce or sriracha if you want.

Notes

carrots are good in this recipe, so is chicken liver??
