Instructions
Chop shallot and garlic as noted.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add sesame oil. Once hot, add shallot and garlic and cook, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes.
Add pork to the pan and break it up into small bits. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pork is browned and has developed some crispy bits around the edges of the pork pieces, about 10-12 minutes.
While the pork is cooking, zest the lime and chop green onions, cilantro, mint and cucumber as noted.
Once the pork is browned, turn heat to low and add in the lime zest and juice, green onions, cilantro, mint, fish sauce, apple cider vinegar and chipotle powder. Mix well and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper or additional chipotle powder as desired.
Remove from heat and stir in the cucumber pieces. Serve alone in a bowl or in lettuce or cabbage leaves.
