Kinda like spicy sloppy Joes wrapped in lettuce. Easy Peasy. Thanks, Jennifer Nielson!
(serves 6)
1&1/2 lbs. lean ground chicken
1 celery rib, diced
1/4 t. freshly* ground black pepper
1/3 cup ketchup
1/4 cup Louisiana-style hot sauce (I like Tabasco* - it is less spicy than other types. If you use a
different kind, start with less, you can always add more)
3 T. brown sugar
1 T. unfiltered* cider vinegar
2 t. yellow mustard (make sure it contains Turmeric*)
12 Bibb or Boston lettuce leaves
Crumbled blue cheese, optional
In a large skillet, cook and crumble chicken over med.-high heat for 3 min. Stir in celery and pepper; cook and stir until the chicken is no longer pink and celery is crisp-tender, 2-3 min. Stir in ketchup, hot sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, and mustard; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until the flavors are blended, about 5 min., stirring occasionally .Serve in lettuce leaves. If desired, top with blue cheese.And, how 'bout baby carrots on the side*?? Or maybe some Ranch dressing, for dipping.*

Happy Friday, Friends!!
Love,
