1 Prepare the Ingredients
Cut off root end of romaine. Separate leaves of lettuce for cups. You should have about 5-6 cups total. Layer two lettuce cups for extra crunch and structural support. Lettuce cups are a delicious but messy meal. For this recipe, they can easily be converted to a salad. Simply chop romaine and top with filling after completing steps.
Finely chop water chestnuts.Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate. -
2 Start the Filling
Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
Add ground beef and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot, dry pan. Break up meat until no pink remains and beef reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes.Drain any excess liquid, if desired. -
3 Finish the Filling
Add 2 tsp. olive oil, slaw mix, white portions of green onions, 1/4 tsp. salt, a pinch of pepper, and water chestnuts to hot pan. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 2-3 minutes.
Stir in katsu sauce until combined, 1-2 minutes.Remove from burner.While filling cooks, continue recipe. -
4 Make Sriracha Mayonnaise and Finish Dish
In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and Sriracha (to taste). Set aside.
Plate dish as pictured on front of card, filling lettuce cups with filling, green portions of green onions, then Sriracha mayonnaise (to taste). To re-crisp lettuce cups, soak in icy, cold water, 5 minutes. Thoroughly dry. Bon appétit!
