Ingredients
- • 2 tbsp coconut oil
- • 1 red onion
- • 1 tbsp each of chopped garlic and ginger
- • 500 gms of chicken mince
- • 1 cup of coconut milk
- • 1 red/green capsicum
- • ½ cup chopped coriander
- • Chilli (fresh or flakes), salt and pepper to taste
- • Large iceberg lettuce leaves
Instructions
- Heat coconut oil in a pan, add sliced red onion, garlic and ginger and cook until soft. Add chicken mince, finely chopped red/green capsicum, grated carrot, and any other salad vegetables you have. Add coconut milk to give moisture to the mixture. You can add any other flavours but don’t be tempted to add traditional sweet chilli, tomato or any sugar laden sauces! Cook for around 20 minutes. Just before you remove from heat once the mixture is cooked, add chopped coriander, and any other favourite herb. Add chilli, salt and pepper to taste before serving. While still hot, wrap mixture in large leaves of iceberg lettuce.
