Asian Beef Lettuce Wraps

1. Separate bib lettuce leaves and stack them on a plate. Pile purple pickled onions onto the plate.
2. In a pan, cook 2 lbs of 90/10 ground beef with the whites of a whole bundle of green onions and 2 tablespoons of chopped garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through. Do not drain the beef.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup hoisin, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/8 cup rice wine vinegar, and 2 tablespoons of Thai herb paste. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Add the prepared sauce to the cooked beef mixture in the pan. Mix well.
5. Reduce the heat and let the beef and sauce simmer for a couple of minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
6. Serve the beef mixture in the bib lettuce cups, garnished with the green onion tops, cilantro, and additional pickled onions.
