Shrimp Lettuce Wraps Recipe
This recipe calls for a mix of veggies, including zucchini, red bell pepper, and mushrooms. They add a nice flavor and crunch to the meal. But other veggies like carrots or cabbage would work well here, too!
You can make this recipe even faster by buying pre-peeled and deveined shrimp. You can also use frozen shrimp if that’s what you have on hand!
Plus, shrimp (and seafood in general) is highly nutritious, so it’s a great protein option! But you can mix & match with other proteins, like chicken or ground turkey, if you prefer.
Combine the shrimp and veggies with the other ingredients (that aren’t part of the sauce) and saute in a skillet.
Since shrimp cooks so quickly, this recipe goes from stove to table in 10 minutes tops!
The Spicy Sriracha Sauce
If you like spicy sauces, you’ll love this easy sriracha sauce. It’s spicy without going overboard and really gets soaked up by the veggies and shrimp.
Sriracha, soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime, honey, and green onion come together to make this delicious sauce with a kick.
Lastly, toss the mixture onto bibb or butter lettuce and garnish with fresh cilantro, green onions, and/or lime slices as desired. Enjoy!
