These savory turkey lettuce wraps are a delightful and healthy meal option, perfect for a quick lunch or light dinner.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the oil to prevent sticking.
Add the chopped garlic and diced onion to the skillet and sauté until fragrant and translucent.
Stir frequently to avoid burning the garlic.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned and fully cooked.
Break up the turkey into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Stir in the chopped cilantro, lime juice, grated ginger, cumin, pepper, and salt. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the chopped peanuts.
Adding the peanuts off the heat preserves their crunch.
Spoon the filling into the center of each lettuce leaf, wrap, and serve.
Serve immediately to enjoy the crispness of the lettuce.
