  3. Add another tablespoon of oil in to the wok stir fry the chicken till done or meat turns white, and then add the vegetables back, then add the stir fry sauce mix well till it all heat through.
  4. Add green onion mix it together then turn the heat off.
  5. When ready to serve spoon the chicken mixture into lettuce leave, if you cut around the lettuce a bit you will have a cup size to hold your chicken better.

I make sauce to go with this lettuce wrap by mixing a combination of hoisin, rice vinegar, and chili sauce and add a bit of water if it is too thick. Adjust the taste to what you like.
