Asian Style Ground Beef Lettuce Wraps
Prep Time: 10minutes
Cook Time: 15minutes
Total Time: 25minutes
Servings : 4
Ingredients
Lettuce Wrap Sauce
¼ cup maple syrup, brown sugar, or coconut sugar
¼ cup coconut aminos, tamari, or soy sauce
2 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
¼ – ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
2 teaspoon arrowroot powder, or cornstarch
Ground Beef Filling
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb ground beef (Can also use chicken, turkey, etc.)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 medium red bell pepper, finely diced
½ c shredded carrots
4 whole green onions, sliced into 1” pieces
kosher salt, to taste
ground pepper, to taste
sesame seeds, to taste, for garnish
Boston Bibb lettuce*
steamed white rice or sauteed cauliflower rice, optional, for serving
Instructions
Make the sauce. Combine the maple syrup, coconut aminos, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using) in a measuring cup. Whisk until combined. Add the arrowroot powder and whisk until well combined.
Heat olive oil in a 10” skillet over medium high heat until it shimmers. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring with a wood spoon to break up, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring continuously, until very fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
Add the bell pepper and carrots and cook until bite tender, 3-4 minutes.
Pour the sauce over the skillet contents, then stir. Simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper if needed.
Stir in the sliced green onions.
Spoon the filling into lettuce wraps (with or without rice) and garnish with sesame seeds. Makes 8 wraps without rice, or 12 wraps with rice.
*Boston Bibb lettuce leaves make for terrific lettuce wraps, but they can be a bit pricey. For a more economical choice, try romaine or iceberg lettuce cups.
