8 lettuce leaves, Bibb, boston or romaine leaves will work

Add remaining ingredients, except basil leaves, and stir.


Cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring chicken is thoroughly cooked.


Add basil leaves and let wilt, approximately 2 minutes.


Spoon a healthy serving of spicy chicken onto lettuce leaves and serve immediately.
