Lunch yesterday was these delicious and easy Asian Pork Lettuce Wraps. There are countless variations of lettuce wraps. Use this recipe as a starting point. You could easily substitute ground turkey or chicken for the pork if you like or change up the veggies and spices. Enjoy!
Asian Pork Lettuce Wraps
1 ½ lbs ground pork
3 Tablespoons rice vinegar
2 Tablespoons tamari
2 teaspoons sesame oil
¼ cup scallions, thinly sliced
¼ cup carrots, shredded
1 teaspoon ginger, grated
1 clove garlic, grated
¼ cup sliced almonds, toasted
¼ cup cilantro, minced
leaves from 2 heads of Boston Bibb lettuce
Sauté the ground pork until thoroughly cooked. Place in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the remaining ingredients (except lettuce). Serve the pork mixture in a serving bowl with a large serving spoon. On a separate platter, arrange a stack of chilled lettuce leaves. Let people fill their own wraps.
