Imagine perfectly cooked, juicy and flavorful ground turkey seasoned with soy sauce and wrapped with fresh and refreshing lettuce leave, with a Hoisin-Sriracha dipping sauce…
ahhhh, my mouth is watering thinking about it. Making Turkey lettuce wrap is quite easy and I am sure it will be a crowd pleaser.
Soy sauce and dark soy sauce are two essential ingredients in this Turkey Lettuce Wraps recipe. My preferred choice is the new Pearl River Bridge Superior Light Soy Sauce and Pearl River Bridge Superior Dark Soy Sauce in the newly designed plastic bottle.
Pearl River Bridge is a premier Chinese brand and its soy sauce is 100% natural, with fermentation process passed down from generations ago.
I love the flavors imparted by Pearl River Bridge soy sauce in my Chinese recipes; it makes everything so much better. Pearl River Bridge soy sauces can be bought at Amazon.
To complete the dish, I made a Hoisin and Sriracha dipping sauce, which is perfect for the savory Turkey Lettuce Wraps.
Watch the cooking video above and make a big bunch of this as a Thanksgiving appetizer. I guarantee that everyone would enjoy it.

I am thinking to make a video for this recipe. Will surely give the credit. Great Job :)
Very delicious recipe!! loved it.
Can I use leftover roast turkey to make this? Shredded turkey with the dipping sauce? Do I still need to stir fry the turkey?
Yes you can. Yeah, just shred them and cook according to my recipe and you can use the leftover for lettuce wraps!
Bee this is such a great idea. I’m no big fan of thanksgiving turkey, but I’d actually eat this. :)
Stephanie, same here I don’t love turkey but this Turkey lettuce wraps recipe is good and I like it. :)
