Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 1/4 pounds lean ground turkey
1/2 cup purchased Asian peanut sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce, plus additional soy sauce for dipping
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, chopped (about 1 1/4 cups)
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh mint plus 1/3 cup small mint sprigs
12 large butter lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • Heat peanut oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Add turkey and sauté until brown and cooked through, breaking up with back of spoon, about 7 minutes. Add peanut sauce, hoisin sauce, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce; heat through. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Reheat in microwave or skillet, adding water by tablespoonfuls to moisten if necessary, before continuing.) Stir in cucumber and chopped mint. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer turkey mixture to medium bowl. Place mint sprigs and lettuce leaves on platter. To make wraps, spoon turkey mixture onto lettuce leaf, add a few mint sprigs, fold in sides over filling, and roll up. Pass additional soy sauce alongside wraps for dipping.

These were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I'll probably tone down the heat next time.

I love the versatility of this recipe. I've made it with ground chicken, shrimp, and even tofu. It's always delicious.

I had a hard time finding hoisin sauce at the store. I ended up using a teriyaki sauce instead and it turned out great.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra sauce next time.

I'm not a big fan of turkey, but these lettuce wraps were really good. The flavors were well-balanced and the lettuce wraps were a nice healthy alternative to traditional tacos.

I love these lettuce wraps! They are so easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The ground turkey is a great healthy alternative to beef or pork.
