INSTRUCTIONS

"Based on the classsic dish called larb, this appetizer is easy to put
together."
Be generous with the green onion. Combine first 6 ingredients in medium
bowl. Set sauce aside.
Bring broth to boil in large saucepan. Working in abatches, add cabbage
leaves. Cover and simmer until leaves are wilted, about 2 minutes. Using
slotted spoon, transfer leaves to bowl of cold water. Drain leaves; pat
dry. Add beans to broth in pan; simmer until tender, about 2 minutes. Using
slotted spoon, add beans to sauce.
Pour off all but 1/4 cup liquid from saucepan. Add chicken; stir over
medium heat until cooked through, breaking up meat with spoon, about 3
minutes. Drain chicken; add to sauce. Season with salt. Cool.
The above can be prepared about 3 hours ahead. Cover the chicken mixture
and cabbage leaves separately; chill. Bring to room temperature before
making bundles. No further cooking is required. Just the final assembly.
Place 1 cabbage leaf on work surface. Mound scant 1/4 cup chicken mixture
in center of leaf. Fold in 3 sides of leaf; roll up to form bundle. Repeat
with remaining 11 cabbage leaves and chicken mixture.
