Chicken Egg Roll in a Bowl
This recipe offers a skillet-prepared dish mimicking egg roll filling without the wrapper. Ground chicken cooked with savory seasonings is combined with a shredded coleslaw mix and seasoned with soy, garlic, and ginger. The cabbage mixture quickly wilts during cooking, absorbing the sauce and flavors for a tender, saucy stir fry.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound ground chicken ground turkey or pork may be substituted
- 1 onion small sweet Vidalia, yellow
- 3 to 4 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- coleslaw mix shredded green cabbage and carrots, one 16-ounce bag
- ½ cup soy sauce reduced-sodium
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste, freshly ground
- green onion for garnishing, about 3, sliced into thin rounds
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds optional for garnishing
- hoisin sauce optional for serving, or extra soy sauce
Instructions
- To a large skillet add the oils, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat until done, about 4 to 5 minutes; crumble chicken and stir intermittently to ensure even cooking.
- Add the onions and cook for about 5 minutes or until tender; stir intermittently.
- Add the garlic, ginger, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Add the coleslaw mix (looks like a lot but wilts quickly), evenly drizzle the soy sauce, add the pepper, stir to combine, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until cabbage is wilted and tender; stir intermittently.
- Evenly sprinkle with green onions, optional sesame seeds, and optional extra sauces for serving. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Serve the chicken egg roll bowl warm and fresh to enjoy optimal texture and flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days.
