Spicy Asian Lettuce Cups: a fun and delicious dinner that’s on the table in under 30 minutes.
Heat oil in a large (12-inch skillet) over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic, and water chestnuts; sauté until onions soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add turkey; continue to cook, stirring frequently, until meat loses its raw color and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix soy, ketchup, vinegar, oil, pepper flakes, and sugar. Add to the sautéing turkey; continue to cook until mixture has thickened to the texture of thick sloppy joes.
When ready to serve, warm turkey mixture. Lay out lettuce cups on a serving tray. Fill each with 2 tablespoons of filling, then garnish with scallions and peanuts. Serve.

This is a wonderful dish. I did add some carrots and the sesame oil was not mentioned so I mixed it in with the sauce. We really liked the dish and will do it again.
