Steps:
- Dice the chicken into tiny pieces. Place the chicken in a mixing bowl and add 2 tablespoons soybean oil, ginger, garlic, chili flakes and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Mix together in circular motion until well mixed.
- Let 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 soybean or vegetable oil.
- Lay the chicken around the sauté pan being careful not to lay too many on top of each other. Sear the chicken 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 in romaine lettuce and top with scallion rings. Serve and enjoy!
- *Fun fact: this recipe can also be done with baby shrimps, fish or beef.
P. F. CHANG'S VEGETARIAN LETTUCE WRAPS
Finally -- The VEGGIE Version! After scouring the internet for the vegetarian lettuce wraps, I finally broke down and decided to tweak the ubiquitous chicken recipe and this worked out great! The cooking sauce is from the original recipe but is enough for two batches of the veggie version so make go ahead and make the full recipe and reserve half for another batch. Save in a jar and store in the fridge until needed. Another tip: when buying bamboo shoots, get the strips. This will cut down on prep time as all you have to do is dice these. I've also included a sauce for adding to the individual wraps after cooking (just like in the restaurant!) I like my sauce spicy so you may want to experiment with the ingredients for a milder version.

A copycat recipe from Damn Delicious with very few changes . So easy to fix at home, I was amazed ! This smells so great cooking that is it a good thing it is ready in less than 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Drain the tofu, and then remove excess moisture by cutting it in half lengthwise and microwaving on high, uncovered, for two minutes. Gently squeeze out and wipe off excess moisture, then throw tofu in the freezer for one or two hours before removing to thaw in the fridge -- this will give the tofu a slightly heavier texture.
- Cut tofu into tiny cubes (about 1/4" thick) and arrange in a lidded dish to be marinaded. Combine brown sugar, soy sauce and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Pour over tofu. Let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour; I usually leave it overnight.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu, water chestnuts, mushrooms, onion, and garlic and cook until vegetables are tender.
- Dissolve 1 Tsp brown sugar in 1 Tsp soy sauce and add to pan. Saute until well mixed and heated through. Spoon mixture into lettuce leaf "bowls".
- For the sauce, combine sugar, water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice, sesame oil, mustard and garlic in a bowl; pour over lettuce wraps and serve.

Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp lettuce leaves for the wraps. Iceberg, butterhead, or romaine lettuce are all good choices.
- Make sure the ground chicken is cooked through before assembling the wraps.
- Use a variety of toppings to add flavor and texture to the wraps. Some good options include shredded carrots, red cabbage, bean sprouts, and chopped peanuts.
- Serve the wraps with a dipping sauce. A simple soy sauce and vinegar mixture is a good option, or you can use a more complex sauce like the one in the recipe.
Conclusion:
These PF Chang's lettuce wraps are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They're perfect for a party or a weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that everyone will love.
