Steps:
- Fried Chicken: Fill a large, heavy pot halfway with oil; heat over medium until it registers 375 degrees on a thermometer. (Bringing the heat up slowly helps maintain a steady cooking temperature.) Meanwhile, pound chicken thighs to an even thickness. Let stand, covered, 30 minutes, while setting up a dredging station: Place 1 cup flour in a shallow dish, stir together buttermilk and Old Bay in a bowl, and stir together remaining 1 1/2 cups flour and baking powder in another shallow dish. Season all three with salt and pepper.
- Stir 1/3 cup buttermilk mixture into baking-powder mixture; it will create small flour clumps, which will give the chicken a delicious craggy surface once it's fried. Two pieces at a time, dredge chicken in plain flour, then dip in remaining buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Place in clumpy flour mixture, pressing firmly to adhere and completely coat chicken. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet fitted with a wire rack.
- Working in batches, fry chicken, flipping once, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes a batch, adjusting heat as needed to keep oil temperature between 360 and 380 degrees. Transfer to a clean wire rack to drain (and lock in that fresh-from-the-fryer crunch). Season with salt; let cool 10 minutes. To serve, lightly brush cut sides of rolls with softened butter; toast in a dry skillet over medium-high heat until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Lettuce Cups: In a small saucepan over medium heat, simmer honey, sambal oelek, fresh lime juice, and reduced-sodium soy sauce until reduced to about 1/3 cup. Let cool; brush over fried chicken. Slice into strips and serve with cilantro leaves, Bibb lettuce, sliced cucumbers and carrots, lime wedges, and remaining sauce for dipping.

CHICKEN LETTUCE CUPS
Chinese cooks don't use a lot of raw vegetables, but instead prefer to stir-fry or braise them. There are a few exceptions, however, and in Hong Kong cooks fill crisp iceberg lettuce leaves with savory minced pigeon meat. Since we have no intention of domesticating the pigeons outside my New York City apartment window (pigeon meat is hard to find in the United States), we've substituted chicken in this recipe, which tastes equally as delicious. Chuck all the filling ingredients in a food processor if you're in a hurry, but larger chunks of mushrooms and water chestnuts add texture. Don't forget the fresh cilantro leaves heaped on top.

Steps:
- Combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, salt, and sugar in a small bowl and mix together until the sugar dissolves.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry the garlic and ginger for 10 seconds. Add the onion, mushrooms, and water chestnuts and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Remove the contents of the wok.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in the wok. Swish the oil around, add the chicken, and brown for 1 minute, or until no longer pink. Add the cooked vegetable mixture back to the wok, decrease the heat, and stir in the sauce mixture. Stir for 1 minute, or until the sauce is heated and the chicken is cooked through.
- Spoon the filling in equal amounts into the lettuce cups. Top each lettuce cup with cilantro and sprinkle with chopped cashews. Serve warm.
