Does anyone have a recipe for the meat filling recipe that is similar to the lettuce wraps at PF Changs?

Thanks in advance!

The dish is called San Choy Bow
If you google it you will get a few recipes.
Here is a You Tube clip San Choy Bow
Basically you can use any dryish stir-fry or you can do very thin grilled Korean Beef with Kim Chi and garlic pieces. It is a great dish to do with your wok on a performer. Drop the Lettuce cups into ice-water to firm them up before serving.

This recipe is the most exact you'll find. The only thing I do that's not in the recipe is to pour some rice vinegar over the minced chicken for about 20-30 minutes to make it really tender (I do this every time I stir-fry meat), the rice vinegar is mild and won't alter the taste after cooking. I love lettuce wraps, too!
BTW, you probably know this, but Pei Wei and PF Chang's have identical food, Pei Wei is just more of a 'diner' atmosphere (and cheaper).
