Recipe: Thai-Style Beef and Lettuce Wraps (using ground beef)

Misc.
THAI-STYLE BEEF AND LETTUCE WRAPS

1 1/4 pounds lean ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup Asian peanut sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 medium cucumber, seeded and chopped (about 11/4cups)
1/2 cup torn mint leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
Salt and freshly ground pepper
12 large Boston lettuce leaves

In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, cook the beef and onion, breaking up the meat into small clumps with the side of a spoon, until the meat browns and the onion softens, about 8 minutes. Spoon off any excess fat.

Add the peanut sauce, soy sauce, cucumber and mint and stir well to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Spoon some of the mixture into a lettuce leaf, fold in the sides, roll up and garnish each wrap with a mint sprig.

Servings: 4
