Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb lean ground beef, 90/10
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 tbsp tamari
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 head butter lettuce
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. Brown the beef in oil over medium-high heat for about 7 minutes, then push to the edges and cook the garlic and ginger in the center for 30 seconds.
  2. Stir in tamari, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and sriracha. Simmer the sauce for 2 to 3 minutes until it thickens and coats the beef.
  3. Toss in the white and light green onion parts and cook 2 more minutes until the glaze is dark and sticky. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  4. Spoon the beef into butter lettuce cups, top with green onion tops and sesame seeds, and serve hot.

Notes

The beef can be cooked a day ahead and rewarmed in a skillet. Keep the lettuce separate until you assemble the wraps, otherwise it will soften. If you only have romaine, use the inner leaves and double them up for sturdier cups.
