Description

Fresh, flavorful, and fast — these Ground Turkey Lettuce Wrap Bowls are packed with seasoned turkey, crunchy veggies, and a sweet-savory sauce, all nestled in crisp lettuce leaves. Perfect for a quick dinner or light lunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 head green leaf lettuce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts
  • 3 green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. Set a large skillet over medium heat and let it warm up.
  2. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, hoisin, and sesame oil. Set aside.
  3. Add a drizzle of oil to the skillet, then sauté the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add ground turkey and cook for 6–8 minutes, breaking it apart until fully browned. Stir in the sauce and cook another 2 minutes.
  5. Simmer the turkey mixture on low for 2–3 more minutes to absorb the flavors.
  6. Remove from heat and top with green onions, carrots, and chopped peanuts.
  7. Serve with lettuce leaves on a platter and let everyone build their own wraps.

Notes

  • Use sturdy lettuce like romaine or butter for easy wrapping.
