Rinse and dry all produce. Slice the scallions, keeping the white bases and green tops separate. Rinse and drain the rice. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium pot over medium-high. Add the white scallion bases; season. Cook stirring frequently 30 seconds to 1 minute until slightly softened. Add the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 1 cup water (2 cups for 4 servings). Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover, and cook undisturbed 13-15 minutes until absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

Peel and roughly chop 2 garlic cloves (4 for 4 servings). Separate the lettuce leaves. In a bowl, combine the carrots and green scallion tops; add the vinegar and season. Stir and set aside to marinate. In a separate bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, 2 teaspoons water (4 tsp for 4 servings), and as much sambal oelek as you like.
3
Pat the protein dry; season with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high. Add in an even layer. Cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes until lightly browned. Add the garlic and sauce (it may spatter). Cook stirring occasionally 3-4 minutes until coated and cooked through. USDA minimum: 165ยฐF for chicken. Serve the lettuce leaves, scallion rice, cooked protein, marinated carrots, and peanuts separately. Fill each cup using 1 lettuce leaf.
