Asian Turkey Lettuce Cups

These asian turkey lettuce cups are such an easy and delicious go-to weeknight meal! All the yummy asian flavors make the ground turkey shine. You pair it with rice and bibb lettuce for a well-rounded meal. It's one of my favorite throw together dinners and only takes like 15 minutes tops. Sometimes the kids will eat it and sometimes they won't, but regardless we love it!
Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 5 green onions chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger minced

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • sea salt & pepper to taste
  • bibb lettuce
  • white rice

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet with avocado oil. Add the ground turkey and season with salt & pepper. Cook until cooked through, and then remove the turkey from pan and set aside.
  • To the same pan, add in the yellow onion & cook down for a few minutes until it softens on medium heat.
  • Add in the garlic and ginger and stir for a few minutes. Season with salt & pepper.
  • Add the turkey back in, and mix everything together. Next, add the hoisin, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, & sesame oil. Stir together & add in green onions. Cook on low for a few more minutes & then it’s done!
