Instructions

1

Cook the Turkey

Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and cook for 8 minutes breaking it apart constantly until it is fully cooked through and no pink remains.

2

Add Aromatics

Add grated ginger to the cooked turkey and stir for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the apple cider vinegar and stir to deglaze the pan, scraping up any bits from the bottom.

3

Fold in the Apple

Remove the pan from heat and gently fold in the diced apple. The residual heat will slightly warm the apple while keeping it crisp and fresh tasting in the final dish.

Assemble the Wraps

Lay butter lettuce leaves on a serving plate. Spoon the turkey and apple mixture into each leaf. Serve immediately so the lettuce stays crisp and the filling remains warm.
