Easy Asian Ground Pork Lettuce Wraps

pork

olive oil

onion

colorful coleslaw mix

water chestnuts

kosher salt (to taste)

black pepper (to taste)

garlic

boston bibb lettuce

lime

green onions (sliced)

sesame seeds

Add olive oil to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork, season it with a little salt and pepper, and brown it, breaking it up as it’s cooking. Continue cooking it until there’s no pink remaining, about 5-6 minutes.

Add in the diced onions and stir in the sauce ingredients: garlic, fresh grated ginger, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Continue cooking until the onions become translucent, about 1-2 minutes.

Turn off the heat, and then stir in the coleslaw mix and chopped water chestnuts. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

To serve: spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the ground pork mixture into the lettuce leaf of your choice. Add toppings as desired. Roll or fold like a taco and enjoy!

Well I sort of followed your recipe.  Did a bunch of substitutions as I was too lazy to go to the store (used grated carrots for coleslaw, Costco Japanese bbq sauce for hoisin to name a few) and it was a big hit! They told me to make it again so that’s a hit! Thanks for this!

Delicious and easy. Had all the ingredients in my pantry and fridge. This will be a go to for quick dinners.

Ground pork and veggies in a fragrant, umami Asian sauce, served on lettuce leaves! My pork lettuce wraps are a tasty and quick low carb dinner. Plus, they are fun to eat!

Asian Pork Lettuce Wraps

tsp apple cider vinegar

hot sauce

tsp smoked paprika

lb pork pork

oz mushrooms (200 grams, finely chopped)

red pepper (75 grams)

garlic (minced)

tbsp fresh ginger (peeled + minced)

spring onions (35 grams, thinly sliced)

baby gem lettuce

Mix the soy, apple cider vinegar, toasted sesame oil, hot sauce or chilli flakes and paprika in a small bowl.

Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over a medium heat. Add the ground pork and cook for 6 - 8 minutes until browned all over. Set aside.

Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the same pan. Add the mushrooms and peppers and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on a medium heat until soft.

Add the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds and continue to saute until fragrant.

Return the ground pork to the pan and add half of the spring onions.

Add the sauce and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is warmed through, about 1 minute.

Break off all the outer lettuce leaves. Top with the pork filling, the remaining spring onions and sesame seeds.

I've just made this recipe for later and its delicious. So easy to put together and very tasty. I'll heat it up later and fill my baby gem lettuce. With the rest I'm going to portion out the mince, freeze some and have the rest for in the week. Such a good recipe for a one person.  

thank you

This is an easy recipe to follow, with have-on-hand ingredients.  The result is FABULOUS and filling.  I've used pork, but have also used ground chicken with great results.  Thank you, Katrina!  :)
