Directions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces, season lightly with salt, pepper, and the garlic powder. Sauté until golden brown and cooked through (about 6–8 minutes). Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add onion, bell pepper, and carrot. Sauté until softened (3–4 minutes).
Stir in Terrapin Ridge Farms Pineapple Aji Amarillo Jam, tamari, rice vinegar, and ginger. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Return chicken to the skillet and toss in the sauce until fully coated and glossy. Let cook 2–3 minutes.
Place a few spoonful’s of chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf. Top with cilantro and green onions. Garnish with chopped peanuts or cashews if desired and serve.
