"We frequently go to PF Chang's just for the chicken lettuce wraps so I was gratified to hear my family say that this recipe (with these modifications) tastes BETTER than PF Chang's. Here's what I did:..." See more Mix 3/4 cup shredded mushrooms and 1 can drained chopped water chestnuts with the chicken before cooking. Cook them all together. Omit the cherries. Double the sauce ingredients (but omit the honey) and add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Add 1/2 tsp garlic powder and some red pepper flakes (to taste) to the sauce. Use the freshest, crunchiest inner lettuce cups for best flavor."

Others recomended bib lettuce, but my husband prefered the crunch of the iceberg lettuce (I agree) so I'll go back to that next time. It didn't take that long to make (with a food processor) and was soooo good! Next time I'll try making the ginger lemonade with it. "

"This dish was wonderful! I followed Kerry K's suggestions, with one exception, I added "cherry flavored" Craisins, instead of real cherries. I thought to myself, "why omit the cherries, when this di..." See moresh is called CHERRY CHICKEN WRAPS?". The Cherry Craisins were so easy and quick to use, verses real cherries, and the frustration that goes with "pitting" them. The result was yummy, and the presentation was awesome! My husband and oldest daughter LOVED them, and want me to make them again. Great summer dish, or anytime dish! Thanks a lot for sharing this one! This will be a family favorite."
