- 8 little gem lettuce leaves
- Low-calorie cooking spray
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 3cm fresh ginger, peeled and sliced very finely

- 220g can water chestnuts, chopped into small pieces
- 1 celery stick, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce

method
- Wash the lettuce, dry (being careful not to tear the leaves) and separate leaves keeping them whole. Pat dry and put to one side.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan on high and spray with low-calorie cooking spray. Add the garlic, ginger and spring onions. Fry until the garlic and ginger are aromatic.
- Add the minced chicken and cook until the chicken is browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the water chestnuts and celery to the frying pan and cook over a medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until slightly browned. Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce to the pan and stir.
- Put the chicken mixture back in the pan and continue to cook at medium heat until the sauce is reduced and the mixture becomes dry.
- Lay out a lettuce leaf and spoon the cooked mixture into the middle and fold into a wrap, and eat immediately.
