The idea for this recipe came from a seafood sauce made by The Barefoot Contessa, however, her sauce used double cream! I wanted this to be healthy. Using lettuce leaves for the wrap makes for a lovely fresh crunchy taste and texture.

We had this as a main meal, but it would be great as a 'serve yourself' tapa or starter.
