Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey or chicken
- ¼ cup yellow onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated or minced
- 1 12-14 oz package coleslaw mix
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce, tamari or coconut aminos
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 1-2 teaspoons sriracha or sambal oelek
- 2 green onions, sliced
For Serving and Garnish
- Sriracha, for serving (optional)
- Sesame seeds and chopped cilantro, for garnish
- Cooked cauliflower rice, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the meat: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey or chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Break the meat into smaller pieces while cooking using a wooden spoon or spatula. Season liberally with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add vegetables and seasonings: Stir in chopped yellow onion, minced garlic, grated fresh ginger, coleslaw mix, low-sodium soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and sriracha. Cook for about 5 minutes until the cabbage is tender and everything is well combined. Taste and adjust soy sauce or sriracha if needed.
- Serve and garnish: Portion the mixture into bowls. Top with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and chopped cilantro. Serve with additional sriracha, soy sauce, or chili crisp as desired. Optionally serve over cooked cauliflower rice.
Notes
- Try topping your bowl with a drizzle of yum yum sauce to add creaminess and extra flavor.
- You can swap ground turkey or chicken with ground pork or beef. For a vegan version, use crumbled tempeh or tofu instead.
- To increase protein, add an egg by creating a well in the skillet after cooking and scramble the egg before serving.
- The recipe serves 3 but can be doubled for 4 servings or leftovers.
