Turkey Lettuce Wraps

This is the first attempt at making Asian Style Lettuce Wraps...

This makes about 3 servings Turkey

1lb lean ground turkey
1-2 tbsp minced ginger, depending on how much you like ginger
1-2 tbsp minced garlic (I love garlic)
pinch red pepper flakes
1/2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp cooking sherry
1/2 tsp five spice powder
1/2 tsp dark sesame oil
dash of hot sauce to taste


Shredded carrot
Finely chopped cucumbers

butter lettuce leaves or bibb lettuce leaves, rinsed and dried for wrapping (we eat about 2oz per person)

Preheat large nonstick pan, add turkey and break it up with a spatula as it cooks, add spices and seasoning as it cooks. Cook, stirring until turkey is done through, 10-15 minutes.

Serve with shredded carrots and chopped cucumbers , grab a little carrot, a little turkey and a little cucumber, wrap in a lettuce leaf and enjoy - you could also serve with roasted, chopped peanuts and hoisin or hot sauce of your choice, depending on your eating plan.
