Asian Turkey Lettuce Wraps

This recipe is from HERE It was really good, my favorite version of lettuce wraps that I have made, and super easy. 
Here you go:
2 tbs. extra virgin olive oil
1 c. finely chopped onion
1 lb. ground turkey breast

1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1 12 oz bag of broccoli slaw (I wish I had taken a pic. of the bag last time I made this, but you can find broccoli slaw in most grocery stores in the produce section by the packaged salads)
1 small drained water chestnuts
1/2 c. Teriyaki sauce
1 tsp. sesame oil (I've never put this in)
Approx. 15 butter lettuce leaves (I usually use romaine)
1) place oil into large 5 qt. skillet or other large pan over medium heat. When hot, add onion and cook for 5 minutes to soften.  Add ground turkey, salt, pepper and garlic salt.  Brown and crumble until cooked through.
2)  When turkey is cooked, stir in broccoli slaw, water chestnuts, teriyaki sauce and sesame oil.  Cook for another 10-15 minutes or until heated through.
