Keto Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Original recipe adapted with source quantities and workflow.
Follow the cooking flow and check each component at the stated endpoint.
The listed pan and basket capacity, cook times, and thermometer endpoint are for four servings.
Ingredients are scaled; keep food thickness, spacing, settings and safe endpoints fixed. Timings assume the four-serving batch and specified shortcuts. More food can require additional batches.
These recipes include household adaptations and recipes adapted from the linked publishers. The adaptations have not been kitchen-tested. Nutrition provenance and source limitations are listed with each recipe; missing nutrition stays unreported.

Before you start
- Lidded skillet
- Mixing bowl
- Instant-read thermometer
Prepare cold sides first. Keep raw-poultry tools separate; use clean serving utensils. Probe more than one thick piece. A timer is not a doneness test.
Cook
- Chicken
Warm oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium. Cook chicken until it starts browning. Add pepper and garlic and cook, stirring, until chicken is cooked and pepper is tender.
- Deglaze
Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour in broth and scrape the browned residue from the skillet.
- Sauce
Whisk soy sauce, water, vinegar, sesame oil, sweetener and peanut butter together. If needed, warm the mixture in a microwave for 10–20 seconds to make whisking easier.
- Finish
Stir sauce into chicken and peppers. Simmer over medium-low for 5–6 minutes until thickened. Spoon into lettuce and add optional onions and chopped almonds or peanuts.
Where your attention goes
Stages can overlap. Do not add every row as separate elapsed time. Safe endpoints and actual appliance behavior override the estimate.
Why this works
Nutrition per serving
Calories: 198 kcal; protein: 28.0 g; total carbs: 5.0 g; fiber: 1.6 g; net carbs: 3.4 g
Publisher estimate per original portion; proportional ingredient scaling preserves that portion.
Listed allergens: milk, peanuts, sesame, soy, tree nuts, wheat. Check purchased labels and cross-contact.
First-cook checks
- Lettuce leaves are required to serve wraps but absent from source ingredient list.
- Green onions and nuts are unmeasured optional toppings. Microwave is an optional 10–20 second sauce-warming shortcut, not required equipment.
- Ingredient quantities are scaled from 4 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks.
- Adapted from Annie. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested.
- Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness.
Leftovers
Refrigerate in shallow containers within two hours, or one hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days or freeze; reheat to 165°F. Keep cold greens and yogurt separate.
