Ingredients

1 pound Organic Prairie Ground Pork
1 teaspoon Chinese five spice
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon marjoram
2 tablespoons Organic Valley Ghee
1 cup diced yellow onion
1 cup sliced mini sweet bell peppers (about 8 peppers)
1 head butter lettuce
2 scallions, sliced

Directions

In a large bowl, season the pork with the five-spice, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and marjoram. Mix with your hands to combine completely. Set aside.
In a large skillet, add the ghee, yellow onion, and peppers. Saute over medium/high heat, for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the ground pork. Continue to cook on medium until the pork is browned, and fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Turn heat to high and brown for another 3 to 5 minutes.
To serve, place lettuce cups on a serving board. Add the pork into lettuce cups and top with scallions.
