TURKEY LETTUCE WRAPS ( PF CHANG )
A copycat recipe from Damn Delicious with very few changes . So easy to fix at home, I was amazed ! This smells so great cooking that is it a good thing it is ready in less than 10 minutes. Instead of Butter Lettuce leaves, I use Large Romaine leaves that you can easily load and enjoy ! I serve with brown rice , which helps you make sure you get every little bit of this awesome filling.

- Make the turkey flavorful: Use a combination of seasonings and spices to flavor the turkey, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
- Don't overcook the turkey: Overcooked turkey will be dry and tough. Cook the turkey until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will add flavor, color, and crunch to the lettuce wraps. Use a variety of vegetables, such as shredded carrots, red cabbage, bell peppers, and cucumbers.
- Make a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will bring all the flavors of the lettuce wraps together. Use a combination of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and honey to make a flavorful and tangy sauce.
