Instructions
In wok or nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp of the vegetable oil over medium-high heat; saute pork until browned, about 3 min. Scrape into bowl; set aside.
Add remaining vegetable oil to wok; saute garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 30 sec. Add red and yellow peppers; saute until tender-crisp, about 4 min. Return pork and any juice to wok. Stir in 1 tbsp of the hoisin sauce and 2 tbsp water; cook until juices run clear when pork is pierced and just a hint of pink remains inside, about 1 min. Add green onions, sesame seeds, salt and pepper; saute for 30 seconds. Remove from heat; stir in cashews and sesame oil. Scrape into clean bowl.
In small bowl, whisk together remaining hoisin sauce, the vinegar, chili sauce and 4 tsp water. Spoon pork mixture into lettuce leaves; serve with hoisin dressing.
