  2. Add lemon juice, hoisin, and teriyaki sauce. Mix well. Taste for seasoning.
  3. On serving dish, lay out your Bibb lettuce cups. Place a little of the slaw on the lettuce cup. Add a heaping tablespoon of the shrimp mix to center of lettuce.
  4. Place 1 teaspoon of chow-chow on top and place a whole shrimp on top of that.
  5. Let guest roll them up, when they are ready to eat them. You can also roll them up and secure with toothpick if you wish.
Notes
*****Sometimes I substitute seafood cocktail sauce (2-3T.) for the hoisin and teriyaki sauces. You can also add such things as bean sprouts, shredded carrots, alfalfa sprouts and use different types of slaw. You can also use chicken, meat or fish.
