    From the Test Kitchen

    Piled onto crispy romaine lettuce leaves, a savory filling of turkey, poblano pepper, and mushrooms come together with our umami-rich sauce, which combines peanut butter spread, sweet soy glaze, and spicy sambal. We're finishing each cup with crisp marinated radish and roasted peanuts for delightful crunch.

    Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce
    1 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce

    Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the radishes lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise. Cut the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Separate the lettuce leaves. Roughly chop the peanuts. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Thoroughly wash your hands immediately after handling. In a bowl, whisk together the peanut butter spread, soy glaze, half the vinegar, 2 teaspoons of water, and as much of the sambal oelek as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be.

    Marinate the radishes
    2 Marinate the radishes

    In a bowl, combine the sliced radishes and remaining vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

    Cook the chickpeas
    3 Cook the chickpeas

    Meanwhile, drain and rinse the chickpeas. In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the drained chickpeas; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently and mashing the chickpeas with the back of a spoon, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add 1/4 of the sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the chickpeas are coated and heated through. Transfer to a large bowl. Wipe out the pan.
