Teriyaki Beef Lettuce Wraps
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1/2 red pepper, diced
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- Large lettuce leaves (butter lettuce is best but hard for me to find, so I use iceberg!)
- Sesame seeds
- Sliced green onions
Directions:
1. Warm about 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat in a skillet. Add diced onions and peppers. Sauté until slightly soft but the veggies still have a little crunch.
2. Add garlic and ginger. Stir and cook for another minutes, being careful not to let the garlic burn.
3. Add raw ground beef. Cook and break up until no pink remains.
4. Meanwhile, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, and pepper flakes in a bowl until sugar is dissolved.
5. Drain any fat from the beef mixture, then add the soy/sugar mixture to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
6. Load each lettuce cup with a spoonful of teriyaki beef mixture. Top with sesame seeds and green onions for an extra crunch!
