CHINESE CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAPS

Steps:

• Unwrap lettuce into "cups" and wash thoroughly.
• Heat vegetable oil in a wok, on medium high heat, and after a minute, add noodles. You will want to separate them with your fingers as you add so that the noodles are not clumpy. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes depending on the level of crispiness desired.
• Prepare (chop) your chicken and vegetables as you wait.
• Once the noodles are done, remove and set aside.

• If desired, shrimp can be substituted for chicken. Note on hoisin sauce: because hoisin is a prominent flavour in this recipe, different types of sauces may alter the taste. Try to find a simple hoisin sauce by looking at the ingredients. I tend to stay away from additional vinegars or spices, but ultimately the choice is up to you.
