How to Prepare Sriracha and Garlic Pulled Jackfruit with Mint and Cilantro [Vegan]

Pat dry the drained, rinsed, shredded jackfruit.
Heat the oil in a large saute pan. When hot, add the jackfruit. Sear on both sides for 2-3 minutes to make the jackfruit a little golden brown.

Toss with the mint and cilantro. Serve over some steamed cabbage leaves and top with sliced green onions and a squeeze of lime.
