Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the vegetables

Separate the lettuce leaves, rinse, and pat them dry. Cut the red bell pepper into thin strips. Julienne the carrot. Thinly slice the green onions. Mince the garlic cloves. Peel and grate the ginger.

2
Prepare the sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, and red pepper flakes.

3
Stir-fry the shrimp

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

4
Stir-fry the vegetables

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add the red bell pepper and carrot strips. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

5
Add the sauce and shrimp

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the shrimp and vegetables. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce is heated through and coats the ingredients evenly.

6
Assemble the lettuce wraps

Spoon the shrimp and vegetable mixture into the lettuce leaves. Sprinkle the sliced green onions on top.

7
Serve

Serve the Shrimp Lettuce Wraps immediately, allowing diners to wrap the filling in the lettuce leaves themselves.
