How to Make Beef And Lettuce Wraps

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound ground beef and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until browned (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/2 cup chopped cucumber, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Spoon the beef mixture into large lettuce leaves (butter lettuce or romaine work well). Roll up and serve immediately. Garnish with extra mint or sesame seeds, if desired.
