Ingredients

Servings

Filling

  • ¾ pound ground beef lean
  • ½ red onion minced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons ginger grated, fresh
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • 1 cup carrot julienned
  • ¼ cup green onions chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 butter lettuce cleaned and separated, head

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine your ground beef, onion, garlic, ginger, chili flakes, salt and pepper. Mix well.
  2. In a small bowl, combine your soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and brown sugar. Set aside.
  3. Heat a large skillet up to medium high heat. Add your meat mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring continually for about 6-8 minutes. The beef should mostly be browned and cooked by now.
  4. Add in your carrots, green onions, cilantro, sesame seeds, and sauce. Continue to stir fry everything together for about 3-4 minutes. Ensuring everything is well combined and the sauce begins to reduce.
  5. Remove your filing from heat. And set aside.
  6. Prepare your butter lettuce and set the lettuce leaves on a plate. Fill each lettuce leaf with your filling and serve.
  7. You can also serve the filling and lettuce separate and have your guests fill their own lettuce wraps!
