GINGER CHICKEN STIR-FRY ROMAINE WRAPS WITH CITRUS SOY (PF CHANG)



Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry Romaine Wraps With Citrus Soy (Pf Chang) image

Found this on the PF Chang website. I'm hoping it's as tasty as the dishes I've tried at their restaurant. A note on the site said this can also be made with baby shrimp, fish, or beef. Vegetable oil can be used if you don't have soy bean oil.

Provided by marisk

Categories     Chicken

Time 27m

Yield 8-10 lettuce wraps

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb chicken, diced into tiny pieces
3 tablespoons soy bean oil
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dry chili flakes
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 heads romaine lettuce, cleaned
1 ounce scallion, sliced thin in rings

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a mixing bowl and add 2 tablespoons soy bean oil, ginger, garlic, chili flakes, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Mix together in circular motion until well mixed. Marinate in refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
  • Mix together the citrus juices, soy, and hoisin sauce with a whisk. Reserve until needed. Clean the romaine lettuce, chopping off the stem, peeling each 'spear' and running under clean cold water. Reserve in refrigerator until ready to use. Chop scallions into rings and reserve chilled.
  • Coat a very hot sauté pan lightly with soy bean oil. Sauté the chicken (in a thin layer), searing until crispy and golden brown, about 2 ½ minutes. Once chicken is brown, toss gently in pan and sear another 2 ½ minutes. The pan will appear to "burn", but that is the carmelization and where all the flavor comes from.
  • Add ½ of the citrus soy mixture to the sauté pan and coat well. Let the sauce coat the chicken until it is glazed, and thickens on the chicken. Add more or less depending on how "wet" you want your mixture. Spoon chicken onto a plate.
  • Wrap the chicken mixture onto the romaine lettuce and top with scallion rings. Serve and enjoy!

Tips

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: This will make the cooking process much smoother and quicker.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will ensure that the chicken and vegetables have enough space to cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken in batches if necessary: If your skillet or wok is not large enough to accommodate all of the chicken at once, cook it in batches.
  • Do not overcrowd the skillet or wok: This will prevent the chicken and vegetables from cooking evenly.
  • Stir-fry the chicken and vegetables over high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the chicken and vegetables and will also help to prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Add the ginger, garlic, and scallions towards the end of cooking: This will help to preserve their flavor and aroma.
  • Serve the ginger chicken stir-fry immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh and hot.
