My mom also gave me this recipe. It takes a bit of work, but it's worth it. The hoisin sauce is available in Oriental markets and some supermarkets. Most large supermarkets carry the dark sesame oil and rice vinegar. If not, you can get it at an Oriental market. It adds a very special flavor!
1. Poach chicken breasts in water or stock to cover with 2 green onions and 2 ginger slices. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, lower heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn breasts over and let stand 15 minutes.
2. When chicken is cooled, heat 2 teaspoons sesame oil in wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add minced ginger. Cook until browned, a few minutes, then remove ginger and discard.
3. Shred chicken into long thin strands and add it to oil in wok. Stir over medium-high heat for 1 or 2 minutes. Add hoisin sauce and vinegar. Remove from heat.
4. Combine lettuce, parsley or cilantro, 2 green onions, sesame seeds, and pea pods. Toss and add shredded chicken. Add peanut oil, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and soy sauce. Toss to mix well. Serve immediately.
