Steps:
- 1. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, sugar, soy sauce, lime juice and zest, ginger, vinegar, fish sauce, and sriracha until smooth.
- 2. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the scallions and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the pork and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the peanut butter mixture and cook, stirring until absorbed, about 3 minutes. Stir in the quinoa and quinoa puffs. Adjust the seasoning with soy sauce, fish sauce, and sriracha.
- 3. Stir in the cilantro and pea shoots and sprinkle with peanuts.
- 4. Scoop the pork mixture into the lettuce leaves. Serve with lime wedges and sriracha.
