LETTUCE WRAPS
Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the hoisin, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set aside.
- Press the tofu between paper towels to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Refresh the paper towels and press again. Heat the 2 teaspoons canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Once the oil is hot, crumble in the tofu, breaking it into very small pieces as it cooks. Continue cooking for 5 minutes, then add the diced mushrooms. Continue cooking until any remaining tofu liquid cooks off and the tofu starts to turn golden, about 3 minutes more. Stir in the water chestnuts, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and half of the green onions and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds more.
- Pour the sauce over the top of the tofu mixture and stir to coat. Cook just until you hear bubbling and the sauce is warmed through, 30 to 60 seconds.
- Spoon the tofu mixture into individual lettuce leaves. Top with remaining green onions, grated carrots, and additional red pepper flakes as desired. Enjoy immediately.

Steps:
- Prepare the marinade by mixing all of the ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Mix the ground chicken meat, chopped mushrooms and water chestnuts with all the Marinade ingredients. Set aside for 15 minutes.
- Prepare the rice sticks by pouring 2 inches of vegetable oil into a wok and heating it on high to around 375 degrees. Add the rice sticks. They will instantly puff up and float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon and let drain on paper towels.
- Heat the cooking oil in a wok or saute pan over high heat. Saute the garlic until light brown and then immediately add the chicken. Stir-fry the ground chicken, breaking it up with a spoon until cooked through. Set aside.
- Serve the chicken with a side of lettuce cups.

LETTUCE WRAPS AS GOOD AS PF CHANG'S
These are a bit of work, but make for a nice, light and healthy dinner. They're drippy and messy, but that makes them even better, in my opinion. :-) I choose to "cut" my lean ground beef with TVP (textured vegetable protein) to cut down on fat and save cash, but 1 full pound of ground beef would work just fine. The sauce is similar to the stuff they whip up tableside at PF Chang's. I like to serve these as a main dish alongside homemade hot and sour soup (I'll post that recipe one of these days) and egg rolls.
