  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon lite soy sauce optional tamari
  • 8 iceberg lettuce leaves large

Instructions

  • Add ground chicken to a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Allow to cook until there is no pink color and chicken is cooked through. Drain off any fat and place chicken in a bowl while preparing other ingredients.
