PF Chang’s Chicken Lettuce Wraps

A copycat recipe that you can easily make right at home in just 20 minutes. And it tastes a million times better too!
I am such a sucker for lettuce wraps. They are so low in carbs so I become a bottomless pit, stuffing my face without any kind of guilt. And when it’s an exact PF Chang’s replica that can be made in 20 minutes or less – well, that just means I’m having this 5 times a week.
I kid you not. This is the easiest, quickest meal you could ever make. And if you’re quick in the kitchen, you could even get this on the dinner table in less than 15 minutes. Plus, it’s budget-friendly and you can easily double or triple the recipe as needed. What more could you ask for?

This will be dinner tomorrow night! I love when you “recreate” recipes like this! I dont’ have a PF Chang where I live, so this is perfect for me!!!! Thanks! I just discovered you about six weeks ago and now follow you! Great stuff!!!
just made these – Yum Yum – thank bunches. I make my own hoisin sauce from another blog. Wouldn’t change a thing. Love these type of recipes for the weekend so we just munch so easy.
May I ask what blog you got your hoisin sauce from? I’d love to try making some myself! 🙂 thanks a bunch!
May I too ask for your homemade hoisin sauce? Thank you.
A million times better, huh? PF Changs Lettuce Wraps are pretty much the best thing ever, so I can’t wait to try this recipe.
I could live on these wraps, they look fab!
These look fantastic!! I love a good copycat recipe 🙂 These look like they’d be a great lunch to pack to take to work, too!
Girl these look bomb! I love PF Changs too, but yours look so much fresher! Pinning!
Wow, this is my go to dish at PF Changs!!! Thank you for making it possible to create at home!!!!
Now I know what I am making for dinner tonight! Pinned 🙂
I love these wraps at PF Chang’s so I can’t wait to try out your recipe!
Love these wraps. Thank you.
I’m so making these! Love!
I could so go for one of these, even for breakfast! They look delicious. 🙂 Have a great weekend!
I agree! Breakfast burrito with eggs & lentils?
I find it so curious that American pins on Pinterest and on your site often hold, as their highest accolade, that food tastes like shop bought food. Whereas here in the UK we would consider take away or chain food as inferior, and home cooked is the ultimate accolade – in other words NOT tasting like mass produced, processed food. Take aways are usually considered here to be full of junk, and almost certainly nothing like the ethnic food it claims to reflect. I don’t mean to criticise, but this cultural divide has just become so noticeable, it is just interesting isn’t it?
Actually, Pete, here in the United States, we love recreating take-out dishes and popular restaurant items because we can control the ingredients, make them less fattening, save on money, and have them taste completely homemade. That’s the beauty of copycat recipes!
I just made this for dinner and it was outstanding. Thank you so much for sharing. I will be making more of this and many of the other recipes you have posted.
A lot of people fail to realize that all restaurant food / chain food / mass produced food ideas all started at home; not the other way around. It’s that family recipe or grandma’s special way of making a dish that gets shared with the public. However, people wont talk about that grandmother who taught the family the recipe, they are more likely to know and remember the restaurant that made it taste so good. Then the people make their own variation at home.Thus the restaurant becomes the reference point. ” spinach dip sauce like the one at Applebees restaurant” now every one can relate cause they all ate there at some point;0).
This is so silly! Pete, don’t look for issues where there isn’t any. This recipe looks amazing and if your not interested in it then you move on. This reciept is home made and a better version of a popular dish. Nothing wrong with making something good, better! C
He was just making a comment…he wasn’t criticizing at all. It was just “food for thought” hehe I put spaces between my sentences but it’s now showing them sorry.
NOT showing them.
That was my reaction, as well, Cheryl. Just a comment. However, I did find Chung-Ah and Mel’s comments well written. This is a great website and I love reading the comments (as well as the recipes).
Carrie, I agree with Cheryl. Pete was just making a point ~ and I, totally, agree with him. 🙂 Homemade is always better. Unfortunately, restaurant food often tastes really good but is full of unhealthy things, which is why we have to make copycat versions of it ~ so we can get back to the wonderful homemade food that he’s speaking of. Which is why I love this site so very much!
As an American living in the UK (16 plus years) I would say we do cook more at home here in the UK however, PF Changs is a chain restaurant not fast food, with high standards. It is not a typical take away like I’ve experienced in the UK. It’s much much better.
Nice explanation Chung-Ah! Pete did not understand this recipe. Actually this recipe took away alot of the junk and made it homemade. You can adjust sodium and add more vegetables. This is fabulous.
Never tried a lettuce wrap before… This one sounds good and healthy,so I’m going to try it!!!!! P.S. I love our ” copy cat” culture and lets be honest no one goes to England for the food! LOL…. Its one of the few places in Europe which the world agrees has the worst food.
I have lived in London for 15 glorious years until recently and the “WORSE Food in the world” has been a thing of the past for a very long time. You can now eat THE BEST of the world from any ethnic cuisine in this FANTASTIC City !!!
True, you can eat wonderful food in London, for a very high price. And in the smaller towns and villages you might still run into some purely awful food. I was served some green paste at a pub in Loughborough once that was called “lasagna”.
I second that motion, Laurel, although there is something charming (albeit not gourmet or particularly impressive) about getting cornish pasties or fish and chips from a little country shop. The best (or at least consistently praiseworthy) food still comes from Italy! 🙂
You are in the minority on this. I have never, until you, heard anyone say positive things about good dishes from England. Another reason why we left and came to America … The people couldn’t stand your food. Soon after that, as you know, we kicked your rears back across the pond. You want to be an elitist? Then I’ll join you … I don’t have to sit and wonder what it’s like to be a mediocre country. I live in one that has all the diversification I need. One that could easily whip your rear once again. Welcome to the USA j@ck@ss.
Geez, calm down dude! I don’t think Carmen was trying to be elitest. She was just saying that you can get a lot of different types of food in London and it doesn’t suck. I don’t that calls for running down the entire country.
Wow Bill did your mother raise you to be this rude?
WELL BILL,
I went to England and found the food amazing. The food in the US is just like any food in North America.
And, by the way, you never kicked anyone’s ass lol. Read the real history books. I don’t live in the UK either, just stating a fact. Now this is a cooking site no a political site. Try to catch up.
In my opinion, your obnoxious post exposes you as the epitome of “The Ugly American”. Your hostile and disparaging attitude is exactly what most Americans are trying to avoid. We need to repair and improve our image globally, not further damage it. Most of us don’t want the U.S. to be viewed internationally as a people who have a superior, judgmental and aggressive attitude toward people outside the U.S..
And Bill perfectly demonstrates what it’s like to live next door to the US. Can you imagine this as your neighbour?
The only reason the US has their independence is because France saved your ass Bill, without France you’d still be part of the Commonwealth. I’ve heard it said that the American education system is lacking but that’s certainly the case at least for Bill if he doesn’t know his own history. Don’t worry Bill, you have messed up your own country well enough that no one including England or the Commonwealth would want you back anyways.
Not to elevate the hostilities. But, I do agree with Carmen. London is one of our favorite cities in the world. The food in the US as well as any country can be hit or miss. But London is offering much to satisfy any pallet. BTW I made this dish and it came out as good as any I have had in any Asian restaurant. Yummy
Haha!!! Amen!
Everything about the UK is just so superior to anything we loud, obnoxious American choose to do, isn’t it Pete? Your comment was (expectedly) snobbish and made no sense, really.
Way to get your a** kicked on pintrest PETE!
This is all really great.. Lettuce wraps with a side of ‘merica
Pete, I think the reason we love the copy cat recipes is, like someone said before about controlling the ingredients, and not just that, but because we haven’t had some “home made” dishes that taste as awesome as some of the restaurants have. Just because something is home made or authentic doesn’t mean it’s so much better than a restaurant’s version. I do understand that a lot of things home made are delicious, but i’ve had some authentic mexican dishes that honestly just don’t compare and are SO BLAND compared to the things i’ve had at a restaurant.
I am from the UK but now live in the States. PF Chang’s is a restaurant chain, of fairly decent quality and certainly not a fast food restaurant. The quality of food in the USA ranges from tasteless junk (the typical high street fast food companies such as McDonalds, KFC to very high end food which would rival the very best restaurants in the world). Much the same as you get in the UK. The big difference of course is price. In the UK, most food is expensive as for the most part it has to be imported. In the USA the variety of food is astounding but that is thanks to the diverse climates. It is much , much cheaper to eat out with your family. We do it at least once or twice a week. As others have pointed out, it is nice to make the food at home, suing whole organic ingredients and tweaking the recipes for your own taste.
The British are hardly known for their amazing cuisine.
Wow! rude… obviously you’ve never been to england.
I’ve been to England, and the food WAS that bad!
Worst food I’ve ever had in fact, I’ve been all around the world and it was shocking how bad and expensive the food is.
Not an American btw, but they do have fantastic food 🙂
Than you’ve never been to Holland if you truly think British food is the worst lol.
Omg!!! Just finished cooking this recipe and it is EVERYTHING.
I enjoyed England’s food (and Scotland’s)! Meat pies FTW!!!
Pete – We like the taste of restaurant food, but don’t want all of the questionable ingredients like MSG and hydrogenated oils. So, in order to eat delicious food, but avoid the contaminants we look for copycat recipes online. Get it?
Pete I do think you mean to offend. People never say this pompous words unless they have something critical to say. Not constructive, but critical. Could it be that in the UK, that your traditional recipes are bland and tasteless … Because that’s all I’ve ever heard about food from your region. Here’s an idea, why don’t you come down off your high horse because the thin air up there is already too much for that tiny thoughtless brain of yours. If this offends you, well guess what? No one cares. Go back to eating some delicious …. Wait never mind, you wouldn’t know delicious if it bit you on your rear.
Bill, did a British woman (or man) break you heart? Why so angry? Maybe you need to eat a lettuce wrap and have a nice cup of tea. Or, since you love America so much, have some maize… oh, didn’t you know? Most of the delicious food you eat here in the US came from some other country too.
Is it just me or are Americans not known to have a great cuisine either..? I’m sure there are lots of nice places to eat in the USA as there are in England, to say that a whole countries food is bland and tasteless is rude and ignorant. Talking of high horse Bill…
Pete, I think takeout food is the same everywhere (greasy, salty, definitely not “culturally” correct). But “convenient” is always something busy working people aspire for – so if we can make delicious, healthy food that is just as convenient as take out, why not? I think that’s something we can agree on from both sides of the pond 🙂
Pete, Ol’ Chap,
If you are going to “criticise” the folks who bailed you out of WW II, please use a spellcheck. You speak as if you are educated on health, but it seems you and your countrymen have trouble lofting a dentist, or even a toothbrush for that matter. Stick to your side of the pond & enjoy your fish n chips.
Sincerely,
Greg
Greg,
I’m not English but I live in the UK. I also lived in the US for a while.
1st of all, stop trying to make it as if the US were the only saviours in WWII. It was a joint effort. Do some reading that is not completely biased first.
2nd of all, you should also get a bit of education in terms of health and dental health in the UK nowadays, your stereotypes are completely wrong. Just because in the UK (and pretty much the rest of the world) we don’t get fake teeth (ie veneers) it doesn’t mean we have bad teeth/oral hygiene.
Last, but not least, I wonder how much you’ve travelled outside of the US. The UK has a wide range of multicultural exposure and its food has reflected on it.
That was funny!
Let’s put this English vs. US thing to bed. Indian is the national food of the UK replacing mushy peas, spotted dick and haggis.
It took you buggering long enough to join the war to start with Greg. You wouldn’t even join until you yourselves were attacked. The world was doing a fine job without you and we were winning the war without your help the only thing that was accomplished by the Americans joining WWII was that it ended perhaps slightly sooner. Yet another American who doesn’t know his history.
These are healthy and delicious, and for arguments sake, P.F. Changs isn’t fast food. It’s a decent, although not authentic, restaurant here.
Pete there are also other reasons why someone would want to make a restaurant dish. I am disabled and therefore cannot drive. Ever. If I have a craving for something like a chik fil a sandwich, and my husband is at work, I make myself one from a recipe on pinterest, right down to the bun. Just like i did two days ago. It makes me feel less stranded to be able to do that.
Before you attack an entire country for something so petty, you might want to open your small mind and consider all of the possible reasons why someone might want to pin a recipe on pinterest. Also, my grandmother taught me to cook great southern soul food. Im a wonderful cook. It doesn’t make me less of a cook or a person if I want a chik fil a sandwich or a big mac occasionally.
Pete just because a food recepie comes from a chain/fast food/Big Corp/Ohnoes my crumpets/ establishment doesn’t mean you need to poop all over it. You probably never tasted it.
But hey, it’s fun to just poop all over something that you’re ignorant about.
Pete, I think this is because we Americans rarely have enough time at home to learn to cook properly.
I’ve lived in both the US and UK, and I will have to say the biggest difference for me is that take-away food in the UK is usually absolute crap and therefore no one would want to re-create it. Even the most popular chains have very little to offer as far as taste. The US, though often laden with chemicals, injects far more flavor, which is why every restaurant that I tried in the US seemed to have a signature dish that people came back for. It doesn’t surprise me that people try to mimic recipes of things they like. It’s no different than one of the few popular London based chains, Wahaca, putting out a recipe/cook book in the UK…everyone wanted to try and recreate the tacos. Don’t be pompous…the UK is the last place to criticize food consumption (cough cough everything in a pie shell).
Really? The English food that I have tried, on several occasions, was horrible! The English people should expand their search for better food. A good start could be a good restaurant! You could always tweak a recipe to make it more healthy, or to better suit your taste buds. In the end, you can be proud of it too!
Congrats on starting a nationalistic flame war with this “innocent” observation.
I know I’m about a year late with this comment, but oh well:
Pete, I am originally from the States but now live in the UK. The standards for restaurant food are much, much higher in the States. I would certainly consider British take-away and restaurant food to be inferior to homemade meals, but there are so many restaurants in the States (note: not all) that do absolutely incredible food that you often only wish you could make at home. I can’t think of one restaurant meal I’ve had in the UK that I found so amazing and unique that I would be dying to replicate it at home, but there have certainly been restaurant dishes I’ve had in the States that I’ve tried long and hard to remake at home.
I think that’s probably the difference here.
Well Hannah, I must say i have had the opposite experience, I have eaten in many restaurants in both the UK and the USA, and frankly I found there to be little difference. I think that it is possible to eat lovely food in restaurants in the U.K. And the USA, but the majority of restaurants in these countries are serving something which is at best mediocre and at worst inedible . Fast food and chain restaurants tend to be the worst offenders, especially in touristy locations.
Perhaps there is also an element of national pride at stake here as well, judging by some of the comments. Thus far I would say that France, Italy and China offer the best food, I suspect because these nations pay more attention to what they eat than most. My interest in this recipe is because I fist ate it in a restaurant in China. I am planning to sample the delights of Japan soon I am hopeful that new taste experiences await me there.
What you don’t understand, because you probably haven’t experienced it, is that in the US many of the best chain restaurants use almost entirely fresh, locally produced ingredients. The US restaurant market is extremely competitive in terms of quality and innovation…not my experience while living in the UK and certainly not in Portugal where the most often served menu items are made with salt cod, now, imported from Norway, although originally fished in local waters.
Pete, I have noticed that too! “It tastes just like store-bought” seems to be a huge compliment. That’s actually the OPPOSITE of what I’m going for when I make it at home! 😉
I agree, the restaurant food in the UK is aweful. I figured even an American cgain wouldnt be able to screw up a cheeseburger…but it was bad too.
PF Changs is known for healthy, fresh, Chinese California fusion food. Their foid is not greasy, over vooked or mysterious like most other Chinese food restaurants are. I could own one I would so I could eat there any time I wanted.
My family spent 3 weeks last summer on vacation, visiting several areas of England. I understand why home cooks don’t replicate dishes from your restaurants. Most unmemorable.
@ Pete: Major way to piss people off, posting offensive “Anti-American” sentiment and being a Brit who “technically is a visitor in OUR country” (ya BITCH!)
I find it curious that in a passive-aggressive stance, you ignited some pretty inflammatory “issues” and suggest that you suck on these facts:
British cuisine is the specific set of cooking traditions and practices associated with the United Kingdom. British cuisine has been described as “unfussy dishes made with quality local ingredients, matched with simple sauces to accentuate flavour, rather than disguise it. “However, British cuisine has absorbed the cultural influence of those who have settled in Britain, producing many hybrid dishes, such as the Anglo-Indian chicken tikka masala (Tikka masala is NOT “British Cuisine, it’s East Indian).
Fish and chips, a popular take-away food of the United Kingdom
Celtic agriculture and animal breeding produced a wide variety of foodstuffs for indigenous Celts and Britons. Anglo-Saxon England developed meat and savoury herb stewing techniques before the practice became common in Europe. The Norman conquest introduced exotic spices into England in the Middle Ages. The British Empire facilitated a knowledge of India’s elaborate food tradition of “strong, penetrating spices and herbs”. Food rationing policies, put in place by the British government during wartime periods of the 20th century, are said to have been the stimulus for British cuisine’s poor international reputation. It has been claimed, contrary to popular belief, that people in southern England eat more garlic per head than the people of northern France.
Furthermore, you gobsmacked idiot:
During the World Wars of the 20th century difficulties of food supply were countered by official measures, which included rationing. The problem was worse in WWII, and the Ministry of Food was established to address the problems (see Rationing in the United Kingdom). Due to the economic problems following the war, rationing continued for some years, and in some aspects was more strict than during wartime. Rationing was not fully lifted until almost a decade after war ended in Europe, so that a whole generation was raised without access to many previously common ingredients. These policies, put in place by the British government during wartime periods of the 20th century, are often blamed for the decline of British cuisine in the 20th century.
Just returning from 3 months in the UK? Your food absolutely sucks. Period. Get over it, and if you don’t like how “Americans attempt to copy cat recipes”, go back and learn HOW to cook. Back to the UK that is, you don’t seem to like it very much here.
lmao, your comment just slayed the entire comment section.
@ SK, I’m American, and wanted to “rant and defend our cuisine AND country”.
Pete seems to have forgotten that “they LOST the war” with the American colonies, due
to the fact that their sovereign at the time (George III) was TOO STUPID to even KNOW the whereabouts of the “American colonies”.
He’s even got a page on Wiki about “nutty kings in history”:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mentally_ill_monarchs
i dont know anything about history but THESE LETTUCE WRAPS ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Pete, please be quiet. I hardly think that bullying your pompous and arrogant opinion on a lovely recipe blog is wanted or needed. It is so important to be kind, everybody is going through something. More Wag, Less Bark kind of concept! Cherrio chap.
That may be because in the US “fine dining” is a form of entertainment and therefore an area of specialty skills. These skills – to combine flavors in such amazing and creative ways… and to find perfection in the balance of flavors – is not something we all have naturally or have the time to study in depth. Therefore we enjoy learning from those who do this for a living. That isn’t to say we don’t understand that recreating it at home is even better as you can attempt to ensure minimal processing and also personalize it a bit if you like. That is why you have posts like this one to share those recipes so that we CAN make them as a home cooked dish! 🙂 I have to say though, having visited the UK that while it has many lovely aspects as a country it isn’t a country popularly known for amazing cuisine so that may also be part of why there is that difference. Each country has it’s own strengths and weaknesses which give us all our individual culture! 🙂
We find it strange that you all like eating at hotels. For us it’s just the same as any other place and usually twice as expensive. Just differences in all countries.
Sounds like you have crappy take-out food in the UK. That stinks for you. 🙁
You may never see this Pete…but I am a Canadian who has made many recipes from this site and every time I do my family and friends rave about the great food I have made.
Now on the other hand I have a friend from England who lives here and we avoid going to their place so as not to have to partake in a meal. It is the worst most tasteless grey colored slop I have ever seen. The cook took ground beef and water and put it in a crock pot with a couple potatoes and onions ( not sautéed) and let it cook all day. The desert was worse than the main meal. There have been a couple other “homemade true English meals ” we have had and it is so tasteless. Give me restaurant copies any day! Most folks from England I have met will not put lettuce in their mouth so was surprised you commented here. Seeing as you are at this page I hope you made and enjoyed the wraps they are the best.
Pete, Do you prefer your fish and chips homemade or did you eat them out more often? I know there are approximately 8500 fish and chip shop across from UK so I was wondering if it is easier to make them at home or eat them out.
Thanks,,
Sparkie from Alabama
USA
I think that all of your copycat dinners look way better than the originals! They should be taking tips from you! 🙂
Loved the recipe! Made it tonight!
or is it tonite..
Thank you!
Where do I sign up to bash the nerds crying about London food, USA food and WWI?
Oh. My. Goodness! This was delicious! This tastes way better than PF Chang’s! Thanks for the recipe! I had to ground up the chicken in the food processor so I did the same to the onions and and water chesnuts. It made it so quick and easy! I will definitely be making this again!
This recipe is fabulously easy and fresh tasting. I followed your advice and added the onion & diced water chestnuts in with the chicken breast as I was grinding it in my food processor. i used romaine heart leaves instead of Bibb and it was fabulous. I can’t wait to share this recipe with my family.
Tips for Grinding Meat in the Food Processor
Cut all the meat into 1-inch cubes to make it easier to grind.
Freeze the meat in a single layer until stiff on the edges and corners, but still pliable in the middle (20 min or so)
Freeze the food processor blade.
Only fill your food processor half-full when grinding — work in batches if needed.
Do not over-process the meat — aim for finely chopped meat, not paste.
Clean (or at least rinse) your food processor right after using it before any leftover meat has time to dry.
Much less expensive than purchasing it at your local grocers ($1.99/lb VS $3.99/lb)
Thank you for this tip. I am going to try it today for lunch.
Don’t be fooled got food poisoned at PF Chang’s Pasadena Sunday afternoon eating chicken wraps ended up in emergency for 4 hours. Also chicken on other meals were over cooked
Food was salty also others in our family had other stomach issues eating the food.
Very disappointed in the food not to mention cost of emergency room?????????
not sure you understand – this isn’t a PF changs website – put your review on their site 🙂
This is awesome.
Lol!
My car got a flat tire
Haha
Dave…that was hilarious!
Squirrel!!
This is the recipe you make yourself. Sorry to hear about your food poisoning though
Sounds like an idiot you doesn’t get this is a recipe website!
Be nice, must be having a bad day
Clearly having a terrible day! Food poisoning is no joke. I’m sorry that happened to you, Donna. However, when you are feeling up to Chinese food again, you will LOVE these lettuce wraps!
There is no need to call anyone names.This is a recipe site not a rude comment site
ALOHA
Donna,
People often think that is was the last place they ate where they got food poisoning from. Do you realize it usually will take 8-14 hours after eating for you to get food poisoning? Most likely it was your home cooked meal you made your family and not the restaurant you ate at an hour before. Funny how people will always try and blame someone else for their own bad cooking.
Absolutely Glenn. There are times when a food establishment is to blame however it’s generally a mistake the family made at home. Cook temps, Reheating process, cool down methods and so much more factor into it. I’m not fond of the negative publicity restaurants face when false accusations are made.
Sorry, not entirely true. In the case of foods infected with preformed enterotoxins such as Staph Aureus the symptoms can be felt in as little as 30 min! Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and diarrhea and usually only last a day. Staph is usually found on human skin so don’t forget to wash your hands when handling food cooked or not.
Um….glad you googled Wikipedia but it’s not staph that’s causing your food poisoning unless you’re immunocompromised…when you think of toxins you’re probably trying to explain e. coli and salmonella….and staph is normal skin flora, so “washing” your hands isn’t going to stop you from “getting staph”.
Having said that, washing your hands IS important and ensuring you cook your food to an appropriate temp, cooling in fridge, etc. And all those bacteria can be on vegetables if not properly washed or watered with dirty water. And often it is humans who didn’t wash hands properly going to the bathroom, or their or own foods and salads that sat out forever that cause the food poisoning.
Hi, Glenn. If you could refrain from mansplaining to Donna about her own illness, that’d be cool. And on the note of you being sexist, why would you assume that Donna cooked her last meal? Maybe your assumption has something do with the fact that she is a woman? And furthermore, how do you know that she cooks for her family? Or that she even has a family? God forbid a woman do something with her life other than having a family and cooking for them! Your assumptions are disgusting.
Liza, did you assume Glenn’s gender because of his name? Interesting that you criticize someone for making assumptions…by making assumptions.
Wow. Assume much, Liza? Would you be saying the same thing if you thought Glenn was a woman? It’s your assumptions and agenda that are disgusting! You are the one that’s sexist.
SERIOUSLY??? Come on you both must own stock in that overrated, over expensive CHANGS. what are you a doctor too?? Give me a break.
SO TRUE GLENN… People are STUPID!!
What does this have to do with the recipe? Try it – it’s fabulous!
Donna…Please pay attention to the sites you look up. This is a RECIPE site…not P.f. Chang’s website.
Wow this is fantastic. “Don’t make this at home cause this one time I got food poisoning at the restaurant that inspired this recipe.” I have a feeling Donna is new to the internets.
lol this all started from an accidental post.
Here I was, just looking for a chicken lettuce wrap recipe, and this thread has made my whole damn day. Thank you!!! :)))))))
What does that have anything to do with this recipe?
Donna this was not the forum to revue PF Changs
Can have some of whatever you’re smoking please????
She seems to be more of a drinker.
Donna is NOT PF Changs!!! I hope you told them this?
This comment gave me food poisoning.
PS: I’m sure 3.75 hours spent in the emergency room was spent waiting behind people with actual emergencies. the other .25 hours was the ER tech telling you that you probably have food poisoning and just need to go home and barf it out like a grown human.
NOT DONNA (freaking awesome name choice),
You are hilarious and CORRECT and you just made my day, thanks! Oh, and trying this recipe tonight btw…hope we enjoy it as much as this commentary.
Cheers to all!
Yyyyyyeeeeeeeessssssssss!
Ate Burger King whopper, was pretty good!
It’s 2018 and this is still funny
And STILL causing giggles in 2019!
It’s 2020 and I can’t stop laughing at this thread!!! LMFAO
Oh, this recipe is the best!!!
Omg this is literally the funniest thing ever!!! All I was looking for was a simple recipe but I got so much more lmao
On the real though, this recipe is amazing!!
Had this for dinner and it tasted so good! My husband loved it
I’ve made these also but I ordered course ground chicken from my butcher. Using course ground chicken makes it more like PF Changs. Try it next time. You will see.
i pulse my own in the food processor. you can get the desired consistancy.
Me too, I find I get the best consistency when I use my own fresh chicken brest in the food processor.
How long do you process it for?
I made this last night, skipped the onion, it was the same if not better than PF Changs!!! I also made the shrimp and broccoli which was also great!
Made this tonight and it was great!!! I sprinkled shredded carrots and bean sprouts on top and delicious. Keep up the great work.
I put carrots as well, thought maybe next time doing that with daikon as well!
I have made this meal time and time again. Based upon what ingredients I have at home will determine if I alter the recipe. Sadly, my husband is allergic to onions therefore I never put that in my food…. love this recipe. AMAZING! Pairs well with jasmine rice…I have added different proteins as well when I didn’t feel up to going to the grocery store and it’s still a delicious meal.
Only eaten at pc’s once and had these. They we yummy. But living an hour from the city we have to cook at home 99% of the time. These were great…and easy with wholesome foods made from scratch.
Made this for the holiday get together and everyone raved about it!!
I use to buy PF Chang chicken wrap frozen faithfully 4-5 pls each week at walmart. Now no dam store in Topeka Ks sells it. I’m so disappointed I love it
I used Dark Soy sauce, which is a bit sweeter and much better tasting than regular soy sauce, and it took this dish from really good to AMAZING!
Loved this recipe.
Taste was I feel I’m in heaven
Yesterday I was craving at home and due to lockdown, I can’t go anywhere. So I decided to make this and I must say It is an easy and loveable recipe.
Topeka Ks sells it. I’m so disappointed I love it
