OR
2 teaspoons crushed dried hot pepper
6 tablespoons Chinese plum sauce

directions
Heat the oil in a small, heavy, nonreactive saucepan and saute the shallots, garlic, ginger root, and chilies over moderate heat, stirring, until the vegetables wilt and the mixture becomes aromatic.
Add the plum sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, vinegar, and sugar. Simmer for a few minutes, stirring, then remove from the heat and stir in the sesame oil.
In a bowl, combine the chicken, cabbage, and scallions. Reserve 3 to 4 tablespoons of the sauce, then mix the rest with the chicken.
Mound the chicken salad on the lettuce leaves on a serving plate. Surround the salad with the sliced cucumber, carrot, and daikon.
Drizzle the remaining sauce over the salad, then sprinkle with the chopped peanuts.
