SPICY ASIAN LETTUCE WRAPS
This recipe comes from Cooking Light's March 2005 issue. A great way to use up leftover chicken. Cooked, chopped shrimp or pork would work in these wraps also. Easy & Yummy!

SPICY ASIAN LETTUCE WRAPS
Originally a Cooking Light recipe, these wraps are great as a festive appetizer or a simple supper. I've added a few ingredients according to my own taste, and these are a hit every time I make them. Great for a dinner if you're short on time (or trying to beat the heat in the kitchen in the summer). Serve with a simple salad and a spicy dipping sauce! You can also replace the chicken with cubed tofu or cooked pork--I've had good luck with both!

SPICY ASIAN STEAK LETTUCE WRAPS
Steps:
- In a shallow baking dish, whisk together oil and black sauce. Salt and pepper steaks then place in baking dish, turning to coat in sauce. Allow steaks to sit at room temperature, turning occasionally. Combine fish sauce, lime juice, chili sauce, brown sugar and cilantro, set aside. Wash and separate lettuce leave, arrange on a platter. Grill steaks until medium rare, three minutes per side over an extremely hot grill. Allow steaks to rest, then slice thinly against the grain. Serve atop lettuce leaves, with reserved sauce on the side for dipping. Wrap meat and a spoonful of sauce in a lettuce leaf.
