Carrageenan Free Ginger-Scallion Chicken Lettuce Wraps

These wraps are bright, fresh, and packed with bold flavor — ginger, garlic, and scallions hit the pan together and fill your kitchen with the kind of aroma that makes everyone wander in asking what's for dinner. The filling comes together in a single skillet with ground chicken, shredded carrots, and diced zucchini, all coated in a glossy sauce made from coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, honey, and arrowroot starch. That sauce is worth calling out: it thickens beautifully without any of the additives or thickeners that sneak into store-bought sauces and condiments, making it a genuinely clean option. Carrageenan is a surprisingly common ingredient in processed foods and even some dairy alternatives, so building a sauce entirely from scratch here removes that concern entirely. Butter lettuce cups keep things light and naturally crisp, acting as the perfect edible vessel for the savory, slightly sweet filling. A squeeze of lime and a handful of fresh cilantro at the end lift everything and add a little brightness that ties all the flavors together. This is the kind of weeknight meal that feels like a treat without requiring much effort at all.
