Asian Lettuce Wraps with Skinny Sriracha Cream Sauce

Asian Lettuce Wraps with Skinny Sriracha Cream Sauce are full of healthy, flavorful ingredients and on the table in 20 minutes!

Are you looking for a healthy recipe that is still full of flavor? I started substituting lettuce wraps instead of wraps with carbs a few months ago with Big Daddy was trying to lose weight. These Asian Lettuce Wraps with Sriracha Cream Sauce is a flavor explosion and they’re full of healthy ingredients so you can feel good about downing several of them!

I have loved Sriracha hochilile sauce since before it became wildly popular. I like spicy food and I like that CHA! by Texas Pete Sriracha sauce offers heat and flavor without calories making it perfect for this recipe. I chose to make a Skinny Sriracha Cream Sauce to top my lettuce cups, but a lot of the time I squeeze CHA! by Texas Pete straight on my food.

Texas Pete has a great reputation. These hot sauces have been a staple on southern tables for decades and have been gaining popularity nationwide and in many other countries. Do you like hot sauce? I put it on salads, baked potatoes and scrambled eggs. I find that I save a ton of calories by putting CHA! on these foods rather than the traditional toppings. These days I’m all about saving calories where I can. How else can I indulge on this?

Thanks to lean ground turkey and vegetables, these wraps are hearty enough for the guys.

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey I used 93% lean
• 2 tablespoon green onion chopped
• 2 tablespoon red bell pepper chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 cup Asian Toasted Sesame salad dressing or a Sesame Ginger Salad dressing
• 1 lime zest and juice
• 1 tablespoon hoisin
• 3/4 cup corn
• 3/4 cup edamame
• Lettuce leaves any variety of lettuce that you prefer

• 2 tablespoon olive oil mayonnaise

• 2 teaspoon rice vinegar

Instructions

• In a bowl, mix turkey, green onion, bell pepper, black pepper and salad dressing together Allow to sit 10 minutes.

• Heat a saute pan to medium high. Add turkey mixture and cook 8 to 10 minutes or until turkey is not longer pick. Add hoisin and stir.
• Remove meat from skillet and add corn and edamame. Cook through until hot. Cooking until a little charred wil add more flavor, I cooked until dark spots were visible without it being burned.
• Mix turkey, corn and edamame together.
• Spoon turkey mixture into lettuce leaves, top with green onion and red bell peppers, if desired. Squeeze lime juice and pour over turkey cups along with lime zest.
• Drizzle sauce over all. Serve warm. Enjoy!

Notes

Hoisin is a thick sauce and glaze. Distinct in flavor from the Chinese five-spice, it's sweet and salty and great on meat and in stir-fry.

Serve Asian Lettuce Wraps with these!
