Spicy Szechwan Chicken Lettuce Wraps - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    1/4 cup daikon radish, shredded (I used just regular radish)
    2 carrots, shredded
    1/4 cup bean sprouts
    1/2 cup scallion, chopped (about 3)
    1/4 cup szechuan sauce
    1 tablespoon Chinese five spice powder
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    2 tablespoons oil
    2 tablespoons butter
    1 lemon, juiced
    1 head bibb lettuce
Preparation
    Split boneless chicken in half. It too thick, pound out to make thinner.
    In a medium bowl, mix together radish, carrots, bean sprouts and scallions. Add Szechwan sauce.
    In a small bowl, mix together five-spice, cayenne, salt and pepper. Season chicken lightly with rub. Cut the chicken into strips.
    In a large skillet over high heat, add the oil. Once hot, sear the chicken for 4 minutes on each side. Add butter and lemon to pan and baste the chicken for another minute. Remove chicken to a platte to let cool.
    Once cooled, dice or shred chicken.
    Place a spoonful of the vegetable mixture and the shredded chicken onto each leaf or lettuce. Roll and serve.
