Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground pork or ground turkey
  • 4 cups shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger optional
  • 2 tablespoon hoisin sauce optional
  • 2 green onions sliced (for garnish)
  • 1 large carrot shredded (optional)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground pork (or turkey) and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add chopped onion and garlic to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  4. Stir in shredded cabbage (and carrot if using), soy sauce, rice vinegar, and hoisin sauce (if using). Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp.
  5. Season with salt, pepper, and grated ginger, if desired.
  6. Remove from heat and serve in bowls, garnished with sliced green onions.

Notes

  • You can use any ground meat you prefer, such as beef, chicken, or pork.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute the meat with tofu or tempeh.
  • If you like it spicier, add a dash of sriracha or red pepper flakes while cooking.
  • For a lower-sodium version, use tamari instead of soy sauce or opt for a low-sodium soy sauce.
  • Feel free to add additional vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or snow peas for more texture and flavor.
  • This dish is perfect for meal prep and can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • You can serve this in a lettuce wrap for a low-carb, gluten-free option.
  • Top with a fried egg or drizzle with a bit of extra hoisin sauce for added richness.
