These lettuce cups are the kind of dish that looks impressive on a platter but comes together in a single skillet with minimal fuss. Cremini mushrooms get cooked down until deeply golden and caramelized, then coated in a glossy glaze made from coconut aminos, pure maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar — sweet, tangy, and just a little savory all at once. Fresh ginger, garlic, and turmeric layer in warmth and depth that make every bite feel anything but plain. The whole thing gets spooned into crisp butter lettuce leaves and finished with scallions, cilantro, and a bright hit of lime juice, so you get that satisfying contrast of warm filling and cool, crunchy wrapper. Every ingredient here is naturally free from peanuts and peanut derivatives, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden allergens sneaking into your meal. It's a great option for entertaining too — the platter looks vibrant and fresh, and guests can assemble their own cups right at the table. Light enough to serve as a starter, hearty enough to anchor a casual weeknight dinner.

In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar until combined. Set aside.
Heat the coconut oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes, until the undersides are golden brown and the mushrooms begin to release their liquid.
