Ingredients
- 6 large dried Chinese mushrooms
- Drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 large onion, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 pounds lean ground chicken
- 3 tablespoons mirin or white wine
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- One 8-ounce can water chestnuts, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
- 6 spring onions (scallions), chopped
- 2 to 3 tablespoons plum sauce
- 2 to 3 heads radicchio, leaves separated
Directions
Soak the Chinese mushrooms in hot water until soft, about 5 minutes. Then finely chop.
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pan and cook the onion for a few minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the ground chicken and cook for 4 to 6 minutes, mixing the meat with the other ingredients as it cooks, so it breaks up into little pieces. Add the mirin or wine followed by the sesame oil, sesame seeds, oyster sauce, soy sauce, water chestnuts and garlic. Cook for a few minutes and let the mixture caramelize. Add the spring onions and remove from the heat. Spread a bit of plum sauce on the inside of each radicchio leaf. Then top with a spoonful of the chicken mixture.

Very easy to prepare, but found the recipe lacking in flavor.

This is a fantastic recipe! Lots of flavor without a heavy or greasy feel. I did use fresh mushrooms instead of dried, Boston or iceburg lettuce instead of radiccio and added Siracha chili sauce for extra spice. Making tonight for the 4th or 5th time. Definately a keeper!
