Nutmeg Free Salmon Lettuce Wraps with Ginger-Coconut Sauce

These vibrant lettuce wraps are fresh, light, and packed with bold flavor from every angle — golden-seared salmon, crisp vegetables, and a tangy ginger-coconut sauce that ties it all together beautifully. The sauce comes together in minutes with coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, honey, fresh ginger, and lime juice, delivering a bright, savory punch without any warm spices that might sneak in unwanted heat. Nutmeg is a surprisingly common addition to spice blends and sauces, but every ingredient here is straightforward and easy to verify, so you can cook with total confidence. The salmon gets a simple rub of turmeric and ground ginger before hitting a hot skillet, building a gorgeous golden crust before being flaked into tender, bite-sized pieces. Butter lettuce cups cradle everything perfectly — shredded carrots, cool cucumber slices, fresh cilantro, and scallion greens add crunch and color in every single bite. A squeeze of lime over the top right before serving makes the whole dish pop. It's the kind of meal that feels like something you'd order at a restaurant, but comes together effortlessly in your own kitchen.
