Chicken- or Shrimp-Boat Hors D'Oeuvres

Start with: Your favorite chicken or shrimp Chinese stir-fry.
 
 To make: Mound spoonfuls of stir-fry into the cuplike center leaves from a head of Boston lettuce. If desired, top the boats with chopped nuts or scallion slices.
 
 Also try: Asian-Mexican fusion. Roll the dish with rice and some soy sauce in a giant tortilla. Slice into single-serving pieces.
