Chili Garlic Chicken Stir-Fry

1.Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the oil.

2.Once the oil is hot, add the diced bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the pan.

3.In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

4.Add the chicken strips to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.

5.Stir in the sliced chilies and cooked bacon, cooking for an additional 2 minutes to combine the flavors.

6.Add the chopped lettuce to the skillet and toss everything together, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the lettuce is wilted but still vibrant.

7.In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, yellow mustard, hot sauce, salt, and pepper to create a zesty sauce.

8.Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the sauce over the stir-fry, tossing to coat evenly before serving.
