Enjoy summer grilling with these Steak Lettuce Cups filled with marinated jerk sirloin and tropical mango. They’re so easy to make, fresh, bright, and healthy!

Jerk Steak Lettuce Cups

Nothing says summer like an outdoor grill and fruit. So, why not marry the two and enjoy the best of both worlds?

I had just defrosted sirloin and had a mango that was ripe, so I coated the beef with my homemade Jerk Marinade and threw it in the fridge overnight, making these Steak Lettuce Cups a no brainer.

This was so easy and TASTY. I already new the flavor profile from jerk seasonings and mango would work great from my Jerk Turkey Burgers, but I loved these as lettuce wraps. Finger food for the win!

• Marinade – Our homemade jerk marinade is what gives the steak its amazing flavor.
• Beef – You can use sirloin or flank steak.
• Mango – A ripe peeled and slice mango pairs perfectly with the marinated beef.
• Scallion – For a slightly peppery flavor and a nice pop of color.
• Lettuce – We love Boston or Butter Lettuce for these lettuce cups

How to Make Steak Lettuce Cups

Here’s a quick look at how to make these lettuce cups.
(Be sure to scroll below to the printable recipe card for details and measurements.)

1. Marinate. Combine beef and the marinade in a large plastic bag; toss to coat. Place in refrigerator overnight.
2. Prepare a hot grill. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat; coat the grates with oil well. Place the steak on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F).
3. Assemble the lettuce cups. Thinly slice the grilled steak against the grain. Fill lettuce leaves with steak strips and mango; drizzle with some of the meat juices and top with diced scallions. Eat and enjoy!

Serving and Topping Ideas

Additional toppings we like to add on these steak lettuce wraps are Pickled Red onion and Candied Jalapenos. They also pair well with this Black Bean and Corn Salsa on the side.

Storing Leftovers

• Refrigerator. If you have any leftover grilled steak, allow it to cool completely, seal it in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
• Freezer. Allow the steak to cool to room temperature before sealing it in a freezer-safe airtight container and storing it in the freezer for up to 2 months. Allow the meat to thaw in the fridge before reheating.
