Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground chicken, or turkey
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
- 1 small head green cabbage, shredded (about 4 cups)

- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- Green onions, chopped for garnish

Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant and the onion is soft.
- Stir in the shredded cabbage and carrots, cooking for 4-5 minutes until softened but still crisp.
- Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes, stirring to combine. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
- Swap cabbage for a bag of coleslaw mix to save time.
- For a keto option, use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
- Add sriracha or hoisin sauce for a flavor boost.
