When I am in the mood for an Asian meal, I will often make lettuce wraps since they’re easy to put together. If you make sure all the ingredients are prepped and ready to cook, these can be made in a few minutes.

I have changed up the classic recipe with ground turkey instead of chicken and added my own touch of crunchy water chestnuts and sugar snap peas. You could also add other crunchy veggies like diced carrots or cauliflower. The turkey is first flavored with soy sauce, sesame oil and vinegar and further enriched with hoisin sauce.
