Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken or turkey
- 4 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp ginger
- 4 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 green onions
- Salt + pepper
Instructions
- Heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add ½ tablespoon sesame oil. Add the ground chicken or turkey and cook, breaking it apart with your spoon, until lightly browned.
- Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for 30–45 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the shredded cabbage and carrots to the pan and toss well. Cook for 3–4 minutes until the vegetables soften but still have slight crunch.
- Pour in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, remaining sesame oil, and optional sriracha. Stir everything together and let the mixture cook for another 1–2 minutes so the flavors combine.
- Stir in sliced green onions, then taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
- If adding extra protein like egg whites or turkey bacon, fold them in now.
- Remove from heat, garnish with sesame seeds or chili flakes, and serve hot.
