Cherry Teriyaki Chicken Lettuce Wraps

[heart_this] · Jul 18, 2007 · 5 Comments

Cherry Teriyaki Chicken Lettuce Wraps

With local cherries in season I have been looking for interesting cherry recipes. In particular I was looking for some savory dishes in addition to sweet dishes. I came across this dish which looked very tasty. I of course made some changes. Instead of frying the chicken in ginger I made chicken teriyaki . I also dropped the honey as my teriyaki sauce is sweet enough. I used “boston” lettuce leaves and they held together while they were being eaten. This dish was very tasty! I imagine that it would also be good as a salad or as a wrap.

    This looks so good – I like your changes, too. Teriyaki is more to my taste than ginger. Love the cherries in it. I have this one on my to-make list now, too!

    Great idea to use cherries in this dish. I love Boston lettuce too for some reason, maybe because it’s not that common.
