P.F. Changs Lettuce Wraps
these are so close to theirs! oh this is a great find because I crave these often, but don't want to pay the price to go out as often as I want them.

Ingredients
3 tablespoons oil
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup water chestnuts
2/3 cup mushroom
3 tablespoons chopped onions
1 teaspoon minced garlic
4-5 leaves icberg lettuce (I use romaine or butter for the nutition)

Special Sauce
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon hot mustard
2 teaspoons water
1-2 teaspoon garlic and red chile paste
Stir Fry Sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon rice wine vinegar

Directions

1.Make the special sauce by dissolving the sugar in water in a small bowl.

2.Add soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice and sesame oil.

3.Mix well and refrigerate this sauce until you're ready to serve.

4.Combine the hot water with the hot mustard and set this aside as well.

5.Eventually add your desired measurement of mustard and garlic chili sauce to the special sauce mixture to pour over the wraps.

6.Bring oil to high heat in a wok or large frying pan.

7.Saute chicken breasts for 4 to 5 minutes per side or done.

8.Remove chicken from the pan and cool.

9.Keep oil in the pan, keep hot.

10.As chicken cools mince water chestnuts and mushrooms to about the size of small peas.

11.Prepare the stir fry sauce by mixing the soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar together in a small bowl.

12.When chicken is cool, mince it as the mushrooms and water chestnuts are.

13.With the pan still on high heat, add another Tbsp of vegetable oil.

Fall Morning Favorite

Pumpkin Pancakes

2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 12-ounce evaporated milk
1 cup pumpkin
3 Tbsp veg. oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs

Mix all together and beat until smooth. Cook like regular pancakes.


(This is an awesome recipe to try with the pancakes. My aunt gave me this one and now it's the family favorite)

Buttermilk syrup

1 cup butter(not margarine)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix first 3 together until melted on stove top. Add baking soda and vanilla. It will foam so use a little bigger sauce pan to allow for that.
