1 Cook the Filling
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.
Add ground turkey, diced peppers, pho base, Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (use less if spice-averse), and 1/2 tsp. salt to hot pan. Break up meat until liquid has evaporated, no pink remains on turkey, and turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 7-9 minutes.Add sugar and stir often until combined, 1-2 minutes.Remove from burner.While filling cooks, continue recipe. -
2 Prepare the Ingredients
Coarsely crush peanuts.
Halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.Cut off root end of romaine. Separate leaves of lettuce for cups.You should have about 5-6 cups total. Layer two lettuce cups for extra crunch and structural support. Lettuce cups are a delicious but messy meal. For this recipe, they can easily be converted to a salad. Simply chop romaine and top with filling after completing steps. -
3 Make the Slaw
In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, 1 Tbsp. lime juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Add cabbage and stir until coated. Set aside. -
4 Finish the Dish
