Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef (, turkey, or chicken)
  • 1416 ounces coleslaw mix (or 6 cups finely sliced cabbage)
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic (12 cloves)
  • ⅓ cup low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Pinch of ground cloves (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
  • 1½ tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Cook the Ground Meat: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain excess fat if needed.
  • Add Garlic: Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Incorporate Cabbage: Add coleslaw mix or sliced cabbage to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until tender.
  • Season the Mixture: Pour in soy sauce, ground ginger, onion powder, ground cloves (if using), and hot sauce (if desired). Stir well to combine.
  • Finish with Sesame Oil: Remove skillet from heat and drizzle toasted sesame oil over the mixture, stirring to distribute evenly.
  • Serve: Portion into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired

Notes

  • Protein Options: Swap ground beef for turkey, chicken, or plant-based crumbles.
  • Add More Veggies: Try shredded carrots, bell peppers, or mushrooms for extra flavor.
  • Spice It Up: Adjust the hot sauce or add red pepper flakes for more heat.
  • Soy Sauce Alternatives: Use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free option.
