Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned, about 3–5 minutes, making sure to crumble the chicken as it cooks; drain excess fat.
Stir in garlic, onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, and Sriracha until onions have become translucent, about 1–2 minutes.
Stir in water chestnuts and green onions until tender, about 1–2 minutes; season with salt and pepper to taste.
To serve, spoon several tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of a lettuce leaf, taco-style.
