STEPS

Cook ground chicken in a large skillet until the meat is crumbly and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Stir red bell pepper into chicken; cook until slightly softened, about 5 more minutes.

Whisk soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, hot pepper sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl; pour over chicken mixture. Cook and stir chicken mixture with sauce over low heat until flavors blend, 5 to 10 minutes.

Mash peanut butter with hot water until smooth; stir soy sauce and hot pepper sauce into the mixture. Set dipping sauce aside.

Form lettuce leaves into cup shapes and fill with chicken mixture. Top with shredded carrots, sprinkle with green onion and cilantro, and add a spoonful of peanut dipping sauce.
