5 T. coco aminos
2 T. almond butter
1 T. maple syrup
2 t. rice vinegar
Filling:
1 T. olive oil
1 lb. ground chicken
1/2 onion, diced fine
1 large carrot, shredded
1/2 garlic clove, minced
1/2-inch piece of fresh ginger, grated
1/4 c. fresh fennel, diced
1 T. fresh cilantro, chopped
1 T. fresh mint leaves, chopped
1/4 c. salted cashews
Butter Lettuce leaves for making lettuce wraps, or rice.
Place sauce ingredients in a bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and chicken, and cook until browned, breaking up the chicken as it cooks.
