Ingredients
1 head of butter lettuce
4 organic chicken breasts
1/2-cup unsalted peanuts
1 bunch fresh chives
1 mango (ripe, diced or cubed)
2 jalapenos (chopped and seeded)
1/4-cup fresh lime juice
Directions
- Separate and remove leaves from lettuce stalk. Wash under cold water and place on paper towels to dry.
- Place your four chicken breasts in a pre-heated 400-degree oven for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken and let cool. Remove skin and bones from the chicken and cut into small cubes.
- Roast peanuts until golden brown. Set aside and cool. Crush the peanuts in the plastic bag with a meat tenderizer and dice the mango.
- In a bowl combine diced mango, jalapeno, peanuts and limejuice. Add chicken. With a tablespoon fill the lettuce cups with the chicken mixture, fold over and gently tie with a long piece of fresh chives and serve.
