Kashi™ Asian Lettuce Cups
Elegant enough for a party, easy enough for dinner--tender lettuce envelops a fragrant stir-fry of chicken, soy sauce, garlic, carrots, Shiitake mushrooms, and Kashi™ 7 Whole Grain Pilaf.
Makes 10 servings.
Ingredients
- 2 cups of hot cooked Kashi® 7 Whole Grain Pilaf
- 2 free-range chicken breasts cut into ¼” – ½” dice
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce for marinating chicken
- 1 teaspoon expeller pressed canola oil
- 2 cloves organic garlic, minced
- ⅓ cup finely diced organic carrots
- 1 can water chestnuts, minced
- 2 organic green onions, finely sliced
- 5 organic shiitake mushrooms, diced
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 4 teaspoons naturally prepared hoisin sauce
- 1 round-shaped organic head of lettuce such as iceberg or Boston to make lettuce cups
Directions
- Cook Kashi Pilaf according to package instructions.
- Marinate diced chicken breast in 2 teaspoons of soy sauce while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
- To make lettuce cups, cut each leaf at the stem and carefully peel the leaf off. The outermost leaves will be large so you can cut them in half.
- Heat canola oil in non-stick wok over medium high heat.
- Add chicken, soy sauce marinade, and garlic to wok and stir-fry until chicken is no longer pink, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add carrots and stir-fry 1 minute.
- Add hot cooked Kashi Pilaf to wok and stir-fry 1 minute.
- Add water chestnuts, green onions, shiitake mushrooms, soy sauce, and hoisin sauce. Stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes until heated through.
- Serve family-style so each person can fill lettuce cups to their liking with extra hoisin sauce if desired.

Just what I was looking for! Looks very good and not too “weird” for my 90-yr-old father. I’ll try it soon.

This recipe was on one of the 7 grain boxes, I made it, and sure enough it was a hit except that I didn’t use hoisin beccause it’s spicy for my hubby, so i just used bragg’s all natural amino acid and a few drops of toasted sesame oil. Totally delish~!
