Begin by making the pouring sauce. In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in 1/2 c warm water, then add soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice, and sesame oil. Mix well and throw in fridge until you’re ready to eat.
Combine 1 teaspoon hot water with dijon mustard and garlic and set this aside in small bowl.
Combine oils and add to wok or large frying pan. Heat oil over high heat until it glistens, about 1 minute. Add chicken and saute until cooked through, then remove from pan and cool. Keep oil in pan, keeping hot over low flame.
Prepare the stir fry sauce by mixing the soy sauce, brown sugar, and vinegar in small bowl.
Take pan that you cooked the chicken in and turn it up to medium high heat. . Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, wait 1 minute. Add chicken, garlic, onions, water chestnuts, mushrooms and the stir fry sauce. Stir fry everything until the mushrooms have cooked (about 4 minutes) and remove to a serving dish.
Add mustard/glarlic mixture to the pouring sauce, 1/2 teaspoon at a time to taste.
Serve stir fry with lettuce leaf wraps and top with pouring sauce.
You can do the same with ground beef instead of chicken
