INGREDIENTS
- 3 item boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- ¼ cup shredded daikon radish
- 2 cup carrots, shredded
- ¼ cup cup bean sprouts
- ½ cup chopped scallions (3 stalks)
- ¼ cup Szechuan sauce
- 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder

- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoon grapeseed oil
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 item lemon, juiced
- 1 item head Bibb lettuce leaves
PREPARATION
Split boneless chicken breasts in half. If too thick, use a mallet to pound ¼ inch thick. In a medium bowl, mix radish, carrots, bean sprouts and scallions, then add Szechuan sauce. In a small bowl, mix five-spice, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper; lightly season chicken breasts with this rub. Cut the chicken into strips. In a large skillet over high heat, add the grapeseed oil. Once hot, sear the chicken breasts for 4 minutes on each side. Add butter and lemon to pan and baste the chicken for another minute. Remove chicken to a platter to let cool. Once cooled, dice or shred the chicken. Place a spoonful of the vegetable mixture and the shredded chicken onto each leaf of lettuce. Roll and serve.
