Chicken San Choy Bau
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 red chilli large, finely sliced
- 2.5 cm ginger piece grated or finely chopped
- 500 g chicken mince free range
- 1/3 cup oyster sauce

- 6–8 iceberg lettuce leaves washed well
- 1/4 cup cashews roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup coriander leaves
Instructions
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the garlic, half the red chilli and the ginger and stir for 2 minutes – don’t let it burn.
- Add the chicken mince and use a wooden spoon to break it up into small chunks, Cook for 4–6 minutes until cooked through. Stir through the oyster sauce, then add the water chestnuts, bean shoots and spring onion. Mix well until heated through.
- Spoon the chicken mixture into the lettuce cups and top with some chopped cashews, coriander leaves and the remaining red chilli. You can either serve in the kitchen or bring to the table and let people serve themselves (it’s better to do this as they don’t go soggy).
