This is a prettty good recipe however, I remember a sauce or a dip that goes along with it while you are eating it don't get me wrong very tasty! Oh yeah, if you want the same consistancy as the bean thread noodles at pf changs DO NOT follow package directions. They tell you to soak noodles in wa.ter. That is not how it is done. Simply heat a light tasting oil (like vegetable) and submerge them for about ten seconds. The noodles expand and have that crispy light texture like you see at pf changs. Thanks for the tasty dish!!!

This was good. It is a little thicker than PF Changs, but good. I made a sauce to go with it that was really good. Special Sauce ¼ cup sugar ½ cup water 2 tablespoons soy sauce 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 2 tablespoons ketchup 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/8 teaspoon sesame oil 1 tablespoon Chinese hot mustard 2 teaspoons water 1-3 teaspoon garlic and red chili paste I heated the sauce on the stove and thickened with cornstarch to the desired consistency.

These were tasty. really like the idea. I was a little dissapointed with the look of the chicken dish on the plate.(not very appetizing looking) Itmade up for that in flavor. I have never been to Pf Changs so I cannot speak to a comparision .

Alrighty, just got outta the kitchen after making these..and yes, I am pooped. But seeing my hubby's reaction while he was eating it was well worth it! He is a big time PF Changs lettuce wrap lover and he says these taste very close. Definetly a weekend meal but definetly worth the time!! I actually doubled the entire recipe and will be taking it to a pot luck at work so...we'll see how it goes there

Just like PF Chang's! I couldn't find ground chicken so I just cut breasts into small pieces. I also cut the water chestnuts too small. Keeping them a little bigger adds textural interest in the dish. It takes some time to prepare, but the flavor is out of this world! Thank you sooo much for sharing your recipe Bama.

WE LOVED THIS RECIPE!!!!! I am happy to say that this is just like the lettuce cups that PF Chang offers!!! I was happily surprised and kept making comments during dinner to my husband about it.
Thank you for such a wonderful find! We had it for dinner two days in a row! I am telling my family members and friends about this one. We will soon be having a lettuce cup party very soon!!
Due to the prep involved I would wrangle in a significant other or friend into helping you. The sooner it is cooked, the sooner you can enjoy this tasty meal.
Job well done!!

i have been using this recipe for quite a while now and everyone LOVES it. I use chicken breast instead of ground chicken and use a food chopper to cut it up really fine and it tastes delicious! one question though. for the marinade it says to use soy sauce, but the only soy sauce you have listed in your recipe if for the cooking sauce.

good stuff, i used soy sauce, chili paste, and Chinese hot mustard to try and mimic the restaurant's sauce.
