Deliciously seasoned shredded jackfruit nestled in crisp lettuce cups topped with fresh green onions and bell peppers! This quick and easy vegan recipe is done in just 15 minutes and makes the perfect party appetizers, game day snacks, or a simple yet filling weeknight dinner.
Combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, agave, vinegar, water, and chili sauce in a medium bowl and whisk together until smooth and thoroughly mixed.
Using your fingers, shred the jackfruit into the bowl and remove any tough pieces. Mix until the jackfruit is evenly coated.
Heat a pan on medium-low heat. Once heated, add the jackfruit mixture and any remaining liquid from the bowl. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Allow to cool for a few minutes and then serve over large lettuce leaves garnished with the bell pepper and green onion
Notes
If you want this recipe to be kid-friendly, just omit the chili sauce.
If you want your topping to be extra flavorful, marinate the jackfruit for a few hours or even overnight.
You can serve this with the filling already in the lettuce cups or just place the filling on a serving plate at the center and let your guests pile the lettuce up with their preferred toppings.
