To make the pouring sauce:

1. In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in 1/2 cup warm water, add soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice, and sesame oil. Mix well and chill until you're ready to eat.

2. Just before serving, combine 1 teaspoons hot water with Dijon mustard and garlic and mix in small bowl. Add to the pouring sauce, 1/2 a teaspoon at time to taste.

To make the stir-fry sauce:

To make the chicken stir-fry:

1. Combine oils and add to wok or large frying pan. Heat oil over high heat until it glistens, about one minute. Add chicken and sauté until mostly cooked through, about 5 minutes.

2. Turn the heat under the wok down to medium-high. Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, wait one minute, and then add garlic, onions, water chestnuts, mushrooms, and the stir-fry sauce you prepared earlier. Stir-fry everything until the mushrooms have cooked through, about 4 minutes, and remove to a serving dish.

3. Serve stir-fry with iceberg lettuce or cabbage leaf wraps and top with pouring sauce.
