How to make Spicy chicken lettuce wraps

1. Mix the soy sauce, sambal oelek, brown sugar, and fish sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.

2. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the scallions and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly coloured, about 3 minutes.

3. Add the minced chicken and lightly season with salt. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon and tossing occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, 5–7 minutes.

4. Add the reserved soy sauce mixture to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, until the liquid is almost completely reduced, about 2 minutes.

5. Serve the chicken mixture with lettuce, fresh herbs, lime wedges, and extra sambal oelek for making lettuce wraps.
