- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- Red pepper flakes (optional) to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Scallions (green parts) chopped, to taste

Instructions
- Add the olive oil and ground chicken to a skillet and stir until coated. Cook over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes or until it’s no longer pink. Use a cooking spoon to break it up into small pieces as it cooks.

- Season with pepper if needed.
- Evenly distribute the chicken among the lettuce cups. Garnish with the scallions and a squeeze of lime. Enjoy immediately.
Recipe Notes
- Serves 2 as a light meal or 4+ as an appetizer.
