These wraps are SO delicious! I tried several different recipes and I definitely think this one got it right. This is one of several delicious recipes from Williams-Sonoma's Eat Well Book. In the book it isn't served with rice, but I feel like the rice is a nice low cost way to extend the meal to ensure you are full! Also this is a great food as a left over it re-cooks really well!
This recipe serves about 4 people. Depending on what you already have in your cupboards you might be able to make this for under $20.
Ingredients:
1 TBSP Vegetable Oil
1 TBSP Toasted Sesame Oil
1/2 Cup Thinly Sliced Green Onions (About one bunch from the grocery store)
2 cloves, minced garlic
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 1/4 lb ground turkey meat
3 TBSP Soy Sauce
1 TBSP rice vinegar
1/2 heads of lettuce (the recipe calls for butter lettuce heads, but I prefer the taste of iceberg lettuce, anything works)
Hoisin Sauce for serving (optional)
Cooked Rice for serving
Directions:
Heat oils in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add green onions, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not browned, about 2 minutes.
Add turkey to pan and cook, stirring to break into pieces, until turkey is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add soy sauce and vinegar and cook 1 minute more. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
To serve, spoon about 1/8 cup cooked rice and 1/8 cup turkey mixture into the center of one lettuce leaf at a time, drizzle a little bit of hoisin sauce on top (to taste). You also can use the mixture and put it in a tortilla and wrap it up, just as delicious!
