For a spicier kick, add more hot pepper sauce to both the chicken mixture and the peanut dipping sauce. If you don't have rice wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar can be used as a substitute. Feel free to add other vegetables to the chicken mixture, such as water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, or mushrooms. Butter lettuce or Romaine lettuce can be used as an alternative to Iceberg lettuce, and may be easier to form into a nice cup shape. Bibb lettuce is also a popular option.
