Pf Changs Tofu Lettuce Wraps Recipes

PF CHANG'S TOFU LETTUCE WRAPS

Steps:

• Drain the tofu, and then remove excess moisture by cutting it in half lengthwise and microwaving on high, uncovered, for two minutes. Gently squeeze out and wipe off excess moisture, then throw tofu in the freezer for one or two hours before removing to thaw in the fridge -- this will give the tofu a slightly heavier texture.
• Cut tofu into tiny cubes (about 1/4" thick) and arrange in a lidded dish to be marinaded. Combine brown sugar, soy sauce and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Pour over tofu. Let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour; I usually leave it overnight.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu, water chestnuts, mushrooms, onion, and garlic and cook until vegetables are tender.
• Dissolve 1 Tsp brown sugar in 1 Tsp soy sauce and add to pan. Saute until well mixed and heated through. Spoon mixture into lettuce leaf "bowls".
• For the sauce, combine sugar, water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice, sesame oil, mustard and garlic in a bowl; pour over lettuce wraps and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Heat the canola oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add the ground chicken and ground pork cooking until browned, about 3 to 5 minutes. Make sure to break the meat apart as it is cooking. Once it is browned and done, drain the excess fat. 2. Stir in the garlic, ginger, onions and carrots. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 1 to2 minutes. Stir in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, Sriracha, sesame oil and water chestnuts. Cook until the water chestnuts are tender, about 1 minute. Season with the salt and lemon pepper to taste. Finish with the lemon juice and toasted sesame seeds. 3. To serve, spoon several tablespoons of the chicken-and-pork mixture into the center of a butter lettuce leaf, top with some of the raw scallions and crushed wasabi peas or Asian trail mix.
