Make PF Chang's Sauce & Stir Fry Sauce:

Prep Other Ingredients & Fry Chicken:

  2. Smash head of Iceberg Lettuce and/or peal off Romaine Leaves
  3. Slice Chicken Breasts thin to about ¼" of an inch thick, scallopini style, minus the flour
  4. Mix in a small bowl, 2 Tbsp
  5. Get a large frying pan or wok with a generous amount of vegetable oil, roughly 3 Tbsp and get the pan to a nice high heat before applying chicken
  6. Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes or until barely cooked fully
  7. Remove from frying pan, allow to cool and mince the chicken until it is as fine as the mushrooms and onion
  8. Keep the pan hot and add in about 1 more Tbsp of vegetable oil and cook down the garlic & onions. Make sure to not over cook the garlic
