In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, peanut butter, honey, sweet chili sauce, garlic powder, and powdered ginger. If the peanut butter is firm, microwave the mixture for 30-60 seconds to melt it and ensure the sauce is well combined.
Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ground chicken, diced onion, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and the onions become translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Stir in the diced peppers and water chestnuts. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes or until the peppers soften slightly, maintaining a tender crunch.
Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring gently until the chicken and veggies are evenly coated and heated through.
Spoon the savory chicken mixture into fresh lettuce leaves, garnish with crushed peanuts and sliced green onions. Optionally, serve over your favorite Asian salad, noodles, or rice for a more substantial meal.
