These are the Best Pork Lettuce Wraps, they pack so much flavor in a little, healthy package. This is by far one of our favorite recipes for pork lettuce wraps. Below are a few tips for this recipe.
Recipe Tips
- To peel fresh ginger I use a spoon, just scrape off the skin before you grate it into the skillet.
- Check out my tip here for grating garlic/ginger.
- Ground chicken could be used as well but the pork is less expensive. It goes on sale for .99/lb at my grocery. I usually buy at least 4 packs to stock up my freezer when this happens!
- Make sure to use sugar-free peanut butter, I suppose you could use regular if that is what you had but I am not sure how the sweetness would taste with everything. If you try it let me know!
- Clean the leaves while you are letting the pork mixture cook to save yourself some time.
- I make a side of Cilantro Lime Rice and add some of the pork mixture and frozen peas for the kids, My youngest is not coordinated enough to eat lettuce wraps yet!
I hope your family enjoys this dish as much as we do!
