Have you ever had lettuce wraps? Well, friend, get excited because I have a NEW recipe today for EASY lettuce wraps that you can have on the table in no time. These take right at twenty minutes, and my kids even went back for seconds. (I went back for thirds. Bahaha!!)
Easy 20-Minute Lettuce Wraps
2 lbs ground chicken or turkey
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 C diced onion, about 1.5 onions
1/2 C hoisin sauce
1 tsp peanut butter
4 TBS soy sauce
2 TBS rice vinegar
1 TBS ginger puree (or fresh grated ginger)
1 TBS hot sauce (this will be very mild and kid friendly. Want more spice, make it 2 TBS)
8 oz finely minced mushrooms (optional)
8 oz can water chestnuts, drained and diced (optional)
1-2 heads butter lettuce or iceberg lettuce
2 green onions, diced (optional)
Start by browning your ground chicken or turkey. You’ll want to add in the onion, mushrooms, garlic, and water chestnuts as soon as you have them diced. Give it a quick stir and let the flavors meld and the meat brown. Since ground turkey and chicken are very lean, you can choose not to drain if you wish. I don’t. In a small bowl, mix all other ingredients, making sure to break up the peanut butter. Pour onto mixture in pan.
Let the mixture simmer while you prepare the lettuce leafs, then load them up! If you like, top with shredded cheese, tomato and green onion. Perhaps another little dab of hot sauce?
I you love healthier options, and lettuce wraps, you’ll love these!
