Asian Turkey Lettuce Wraps - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/4 lbs extra-lean ground turkey
1 (16 ounce) package frozen oriental mixed vegetables, thawed
1/3 cup reduced-sodium teriyaki sauce (I bought organic brand at Whole Foods cuz it has natural sugar and small amount of it)
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (also bought at whole foods)
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (I used natural peanut butter, no sugar)
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger, root (I do not like ginger so I skipped this ingredient but I'm sure it's good with it)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
4 green onions, chopped
10 boston lettuce leaves
additional hoisin sauce (optional)
Preparation
-
In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook and stir the turkey over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Coarsely chop mixed vegetables; add to the pan. Stir in teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce, peanut butter, ginger, garlic, vinegar and oil. Cook and stir over medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until heated through. Remove from heat. Stir in onions. Place a 1/2 cup turkey mixture on each lettuce leaf; fold lettuce over filling. Serve with additional hoisin sauce, if desired.
