Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened and fragrant.

|
Toss in the bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4

Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Then add the ground chicken or turkey and sauté for 7 minutes, breaking it up as it cooks, until cooked through.

Stir in the soy sauce mixture and salt and cook for 2 minutes until the juices evaporate and the filling is nicely coated. This step is important. Letting the liquid evaporate concentrates the flavor and keeps your lettuce cups from getting soggy

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Prep Your Lettuce Cups First 🥬Separate and chill your lettuce leaves 15 minutes before serving to keep them crisp and easy to handle as vessels for the warm filling.
- Break Ground Chicken Into Tiny Pieces 🍗Use a wooden spoon to constantly break apart the chicken as it cooks into small, bite-sized crumbles for better sauce coating and texture in each wrap.
- Bloom Your Aromatics in Oil 🧄Cook minced ginger and garlic in hot oil for 30 seconds before adding chicken to release their essential oils and create a deeply flavorful base.
- Balance Your Sauce Sweet-Salty Ratio 🍯Taste and adjust honey and soy sauce separately—add soy sauce first for saltiness, then honey to round it out, as they interact differently on the palate.
- Toast Lettuce Cups on the Pan 🔥Quickly warm the lettuce leaves in the pan after finishing the filling to add subtle char and make them more pliable and flavorful.
