Recipe Categories:
Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound of ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
Once the beef is browned, drain any excess fat from the skillet. Next, add 1 cup of diced fresh pineapple to the skillet and stir to combine with the beef.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the beef and pineapple mixture, stirring well to coat everything evenly.
Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes, letting the flavors meld together. While the beef mixture simmers, prepare the lettuce wraps by rinsing and drying 8 large lettuce leaves, such as butter or romaine lettuce.
Once the beef and pineapple mixture is ready, spoon a generous amount into each lettuce leaf. Top with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and crunch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh and flavorful wraps!
