Let’s Wrap | Lettuce Wraps

letwrap 1
No carbs doesn’t mean no flavor. Here’s a very simple alternative wrap you can do with chicken or beef (or both) that’s surprisingly delicious.

 

letwrap 2
Boneless chicken works best in a wrap. Season with green seasoning or spices of your desired flavor.

 

letwrap 3
On beef, salt and black pepper is essential. But you can add more spices to give it a little twist without overpowering the beef.

 

letwrap 4
You can prepare your meat any way you like it. We went with a quick pan sear, but feel free to try a grilled version without oil, or even a BBQ version if the grill is out.

 

letwrap 7
For chicken, sear both sides until they’re brown (about 3 minutes each side) then finish them off in the oven. About 10 to 15 minutes.

 

letwrap 8
For the beef, sear for about 2 to 3 minutes each side or to your desired temperature.

 

letwrap 9
Slice beef in thin slices. Especially with tougher cuts that have less fat, this will help the texture.

 

letwrap 10
Slice chicken thick enough so the pieces stay firm, but thin enough to spread through your wrap.

 

letwrap 17
Get your lettuce. You can cut out the firm lower rib so it’s easier to wrap.

 

letwrap 11
Take a little portion of meat (you don’t want it overstuffed) and spread it over a portion of the lettuce.

 

letwrap 12
Add condiments of your preference. We used a creamy garlic sauce…
letwrap 13
And a tangy salsa to up the flavors.

 

letwrap 14
Roll the lettuce to encase the filling, then cut on the bias.

 

letwrap 15
And that’s it. A nice treat with not so much guilt.

 

letwrap 16
Try it with fish or seafood too. The possibilities are endless.
