3 cloves Melissa’s Peeled Garlic

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

As needed extra virgin olive oil

2 green Bell Peppers, stems and seeds removed, julienned

½ cup Hoisin sauce

4 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar

Directions
Trim the bottom off the cabbage and carefully separate the leaves. Set aside.
Place the chicken in a large pot and cover with cold water. Peel and chop 1 onion and add that to the pot along with the garlic. Bring the chicken to a boil and season with salt and pepper. Gently boil for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked. When it is cool enough to handle, remove the bones and shred the meat.
Peel and thinly slice the remaining 2 onions.
In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil. Add the onions, bell peppers and carrots and sauté until just tender-crisp. Mix the sauces, vinegar and chicken together and add to the pan. Cook until just heated through. Add the zest and orange segments and gently mix. Add the mixture to the cabbage leaves to create the cups.
