Ingredients

Asian Style Pork

1 tablespoon sesame oil toasted (or sub avocado oil)
2 tablespoons fresh grated ginger sub 1 teaspoon ginger powder
4 cloves garlic minced
1 pound ground pork
1/4-1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup coconut aminos
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar unseasoned (sugar free)
1-3 teaspoons sriracha (paleo sriracha recommended, sugar free)

Lettuce Wraps

16 leaves butter lettuce
1/2 cup carrots julienne cut (or shredded)
1 red bell pepper cut into thin strips
1/2 cup green onions sliced
2 teaspoons sesame seeds toasted
1/4 cup sliced almonds toasted

Instructions

Heat a skillet over medium high heat, and add in sesame oil, grated ginger, and garlic. Saute for about 5 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Add the ground pork, and break up with a spatula as it browns. Season lightly with sea salt. Continue cooking pork, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Once the pork is cooked through, season with coconut aminos, vinegar, and sriracha. Taste, and adjust salt and spice.
Serve pork with lettuce leaves, crisp vegetables, herbs, sesame seeds and almonds. Either plate these with each lettuce wrap assembled, or add the meat, lettuce, and toppings to little dishes and serve these for everyone to assemble individually.
