Here's my entry. Korean Lettuce Wraps. These were really, really, good!! I'll be making them often.

http://www.goodcooking.com/recipes/koreawpr.htm

Ingredients:
1 package tofu, firm style
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 lb pork, fresh ground
1/2 tsp garlic, minced
6 stalks scallions, washed and sliced thin
3 tbsp Hoisin sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp hot chile paste
4 cups rice, cooked and hot
1 head iceberg lettuce, leaves separated, washed and drained

Preparation:

Drain the tofu and place it in a strainer for 30 minutes. Heat a wok or no-stick pan over high heat. Add oil; coat wok or pan. Add pork, scallions and garlic. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes or until brown. Crumble in the tofu, add the Hoisin sauce, and soy. Heat through, remove from the heat and stir in the sesame oil and chile paste. To serve, spoon some pork mixture and rice onto lettuce leaves; wrap to enclose. Eat with a little soy as a dipping sauce.

so i loved the lettuce wrap idea.. never had them before and thought this was a good reason ..
i used leftover smoked chicken .. i kind of made up the rest from a few different recipes i saw ..
soy sauce
chile paste
toasted sesame seeds
then i had about 2 cups of jasmin rice ..
simple and tasty .. another great way to use up leftover chicken ..
