Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds lean ground turkey
- 1/2 onion diced
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil divided in half
- 4 cups tri-color coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage
- 12 ounces frozen mixed vegetables
- 4 cloves garlic pressed
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- salt & pepper to taste
Garnish (optional)
- spicy mayo
- Yum yum sauce
- sliced green onions
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat with one tablespoon of vegetable oil. Saute the onion and ground turkey until the onion is clear and the turkey is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess liquid and remove the turkey and onion and set aside.
- Return the skillet to stove on medium high heat. Add the remaining vegetable oil, coleslaw mix, garlic, and frozen vegetables. Let cook for 3-4 minutes then stir and continue to cook until the cabbage softens, about 3 more minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low. Push the veggies to the side, add the meat back into the skillet on the other side. Add the sesame oil to the bottom of the skillet and crack the eggs onto the leftover space. Scramble the eggs until they are almost done, then pour the soy sauce over the skillet and stir continuously until everything is well mixed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve topped with your choice of sliced green onions, and either yum yum sauce or spicy mayo (my choice!)
Notes
- Substitutions:
- How to Store: To save leftovers, separate into meal sized portions and then place in an airtight container and store:
- How to Freeze: Ground turkey stir fry can be easily prepared as a freezer meal to enjoy on another busy night, or share with a friend in need.
- How to Reheat: This can be reheated in the microwave in 30 second increments.
- Ground turkey – Any ground turkey, either lean or extra lean, will give you great results.
- Cabbage – Shred your own, or save time with a bag of pre-washed and pre-sliced. I used a tri-color coleslaw blend, but any cabbage will do.
- Frozen vegetables – You can also use any blend you like. We opted for peas and carrots, but those with corn, green beans, or broccoli are also great.
- Soy Sauce – Traditional or low sodium options work equally well. Or, if you would like your stir fry to be gluten-free, opt for liquid aminos.
- Sesame Oil – This is one thing that you may not have in your pantry. You can use canola or any other cooking oil and it’ll work just fine! But, if you can find it, sesame gives this ground turkey cabbage stir fry that authentic Asian flavor.
- Eggs – Feel free to omit for allergies or egg-free diets. You can also add extra eggs if you really want to make this recipe protein rich.
