Next, add the ground chicken, and using a spatula, break the meat apart. Add a pinch of salt to start seasoning the meat. Cook 1 min, then add the soy sauce and a couple of grinds of fresh black pepper. Continue to mix every so often, to avoid burning. Cook thoroughly - The chicken will turn from pink to white, when cooked.

Add the rice wine vinegar, jalapeno peppers (1 pepper for mild, 2 peppers for spicy), scallions, garlic and sugar to the chicken. Stir gently. Allow the liquid to cook and reduce by half.

Once reduced, add the diced jicama and cook until slightly softened.

While the jicama cooks, quickly rinse and dry your Bibb lettuce leaves. Arrange on a platter.
