To Serve:

¼cupunsalted peanuts,roasted, chopped coarsely
½cupcilantro,chopped

Instructions

Combine the soy sauce, rice wine, oyster sauce, and water for sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
Select the “Sauté” function on the electric pressure cooker and heat the oil. Sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger for about 2 minutes, just long enough to take the raw bite out of the garlic.
Add the zucchini, ground meat, water chestnuts, and ½ teaspoon of salt. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break up the meat and sauté for 3 minutes.
Add the liquid and seal the pot. Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice wine, and water. Quickly close the pot and lock the lid into position.
“Cancel” the “Sauté” program on the pressure cooker, then select the “Manual” setting and set the cooking time to 10 minutes at High pressure. Make sure the pressure release valve is set to “Sealing.”
When the cooking program has ended, either perform a quick release by moving the pressure release valve to “Venting”, or just letting the pressure release on its own.
To serve, use a slotted spoon scoop out some of the chicken mixture, and place into the lettuce cups.
Top each cup with some of the green onions, chopped peanuts, and cilantro.
Serve right away, and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Ground pork will also work in place of the ground chicken, or chopped mushrooms (about 8 ounces) in place of the zucchini.
If making this recipe in a larger (8-quart) pressure cooker, either double the whole recipe or add another ½ cup of water, which can be boiled or strained off at the end.
If using a stovetop pressure cooker, reduce the pressure cooking time to 8 minutes.
