Moo Shu Pork Lettuce Wraps
Moo Shu Pork Lettuce Wraps is an amazing recipe that can be cooked in a skillet or your Blackstone griddle.
By definition, Moo Shu Pork means “a dish made with pork, vegetables, egg, and Hoisin sauce served in a crepe or mandarin pancake”.
How to make Moo Shu Pork Lettuce Wraps
I started with a 1 1/2 pound piece of pork loin and thinly sliced it into 1 inch strips.
The marinade I used was Hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic paste, ginger paste, and Sriracha.
Then in a large skillet or Blackstone griddle over medium high heat add some sesame or vegetable oil and the pork, with the marinade.
This will cook for about 6 minutes, then remove from the skillet or griddle.
More oil goes into the same skillet, but over medium heat, along with some gorgeous veggies!
I went with red cabbage, carrots, onion, and mushrooms.
This cooks for 5 more minutes.
Next up is green onions, Hoisin, soy sauce, garlic and ginger pastes, rice vinegar, and Sriracha.
This starts to smell pretty dang amazing at this point!
After a few more minutes you’ll make some space in the center of the pan.
Just move all the yummy veggies to the outer sides and pour 2 beaten eggs into the center.
Let the egg cook for a minute or two and then stir it.
After the egg is cooked through add the pork and you’re ready to serve!
Ready for the Moo Shu Pork Lettuce Wraps…
Serve with more Hoisin sauce drizzled over top along with more green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
