👨‍🍳 Instructions

Rinse whole lettuce leaves and pat dry, being careful not tear them.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Cook and stir beef and cooking oil in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.

Drain and discard grease; transfer beef to a bowl.

Cook and stir onion in the same skillet used for beef until slightly tender, 5 to 10 minutes.

Stir hoisin sauce, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and chile pepper sauce into onions.

Add water chestnuts, green onions, sesame oil, and cooked beef; cook and stir until the onions just begin to wilt, about 2 minutes.

Arrange lettuce leaves around the outer edge of a large serving platter and pile meat mixture in the center.
