PF Chang - Korean Barbecued Tofurky Lettuce Wraps Recipe

[Guest guest]

When I made this for my kids, my son exlclaimed that " ...it tastes just

like....no, BETTER...than the lettuce wraps at Chang's! "

 

I've used whatever " turkey " slices were easier to get/on sale at my local

store. I imagine you could also use small cubed tofu instead.

 

I also double the marinade, but not the onion amount.

 

We don't use the rice.

Combine sesame seeds, oil, sweetener, spices, and onion in a glass

marinade. Cover and refrigerate 2-6 hours, stirring occasionally.

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and add the Tofurky

mixture and marinade. Cook, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes. To

serve, place about 3/4 cup cooked rice, 5-8 lettuce leaves, and a

fourth of the Tofurky on each plate. To eat, fill a lettuce leaf with

rice, Tofurky, and salsa or hot pepper paste to taste. Roll up and

eat with your fingers.
