Directions
Step 1
Clean and pat dry the shrimp with a paper towel.

In a bowl, mix sambal oelek, lime juice, honey, soy sauce, and salt, creating a marinade.
Step 3
Add shrimp to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Let them marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 6
Lay out the butter lettuce leaves on a clean surface. Place 2-3 cucumber ribbons in each leaf as a base.
Step 7
Add a few cooked shrimp on top of the cucumbers. Sprinkle with chopped spring onions, cilantro, and mint.
Step 8
Drizzle any remaining marinade from the shrimp over the wraps for extra flavor.
