Based on the classsic dish called larb, this appetizer is easy to put
together." Be generous with the green onion. Combine first 6
ingredients in medium bowl. Set sauce aside. Bring broth to boil in
large saucepan. Working in abatches, add cabbage leaves. Cover and
simmer until leaves are wilted, about 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon,
transfer leaves to bowl of cold water. Drain leaves; pat dry. Add
beans to broth in pan; simmer until tender, about 2 minutes. Using
slotted spoon, add beans to sauce. Pour off all but 1/4 cup liquid
from saucepan. Add chicken; stir over medium heat until cooked
through, breaking up meat with spoon, about 3 minutes. Drain chicken;
add to sauce. Season with salt. Cool. The above can be prepared about
3 hours ahead. Cover the chicken mixture and cabbage leaves
separately; chill. Bring to room temperature before making bundles.
No further cooking is required. Just the final assembly. Place 1
cabbage leaf on work surface. Mound scant 1/4 cup chicken mixture in
center of leaf. Fold in 3 sides of leaf; roll up to form bundle.
Repeat with remaining 11 cabbage leaves and chicken mixture.

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting

Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.

Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
