    In a small bowl, whisk together the canned pumpkin, chili garlic paste, Dijon mustard, and minced ginger until smooth; set aside.

  2. 2

  3. 3

    Add the ground chicken, season lightly with salt and black pepper, and cook, breaking it into small pieces, until no longer pink.

  4. 4

    Pour in about two-thirds of the pumpkin-chile sauce and toss to coat the chicken evenly.

    Stir in the remaining sauce along with the chicken stock and red wine vinegar. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 10–15 minutes to meld flavors.
