Mince the garlic and grate the ginger. Shred the carrot and slice the green onions. Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry carefully so they stay crisp.
Heat the sesame oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. When the turkey is nearly done, stir in the garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Stir in the soy sauce, shredded carrots, and half the green onions. Cook for 1 minute until the carrots just begin to soften, then season with salt.
Spoon the warm turkey filling into the center of the butter lettuce leaves. Garnish with the remaining green onions and sesame seeds.
