12-15 leaves iceberg lettuce

Special Sauce
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups water
6 tablespoons soy sauce
6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
6 tablespoons ketchup

3/8 teaspoon sesame oil
3 tablespoons hot mustard
6 teaspoons water
3-6 teaspoons garlic and red chile paste

Stir Fry Sauce
6 tablespoons soy sauce
6 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar

Directions

• Make the special sauce by dissolving the sugar in water in a small bowl.
• Add soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice and sesame oil.
• Mix well and refrigerate this sauce until you're ready to serve.
• Combine the hot water with the hot mustard and set this aside as well.
• Eventually add your desired measurement of mustard and garlic chili sauce to the special sauce mixture to pour over the wraps.
• Bring oil to high heat in a wok or large frying pan.
• Saute chicken breasts for 4 to 5 minutes per side or done.
• Remove chicken from the pan and cool.

• When chicken is cool, mince it as the mushrooms and water chestnuts are.
• With the pan still on high heat, add another Tbsp of vegetable oil.
• Add chicken, garlic, onions, water chestnuts and mushrooms to the pan.
• Add the stir fry sauce to the pan and saute the mixture for a couple minutes then serve it in the lettuce"cups".
• Top with"Special Sauce".

Critique:
These were very easy to make and really tasty.  Some of the ingredients were a little more difficult to find, but that's because we looked at Wal-Mart for them.....side note always go to Harmon's or Smith's for more of the specialty items.
