Low Carb Crack Slaw Recipe & Video
Description
Low Carb Crack Slaw combines browned ground beef with finely minced garlic fried in sesame oil, then mixed with several cups of coleslaw mix. The mixture is seasoned with a combination of sriracha for heat, soy sauce for savory depth, white vinegar for brightness, and a pinch of sugar along with salt and pepper to balance flavors. The coleslaw mix softens during cooking but maintains some crunch, providing a satisfying texture contrast to the cooked meat. Toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions are sprinkled on at the end to add nutty notes and fresh sharpness.
This dish can be served as a low-carb main course or alongside other dishes. The heat level can be adjusted with more or less sriracha according to preference. It also works well using ground chicken or turkey as alternatives to ground beef.
Adjust the spice by adding more sriracha if desired, and feel free to swap ingredients to suit taste or dietary considerations.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or chicken or turkey, lean
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 6-7 cups coleslaw mix
- 1-2 tablespoons sriracha
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon white sugar or splenda for low carb
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds toasted
- 2-3 tablespoons green onion chopped
Instructions
- In a large skillet, fry the ground beef until cooked and no longer pink. Drain and return to the stove.
- Push the ground beef to the side and add the sesame seed oil in the space. Add in the garlic and fry for 2-3 minutes, then mix into the ground beef.
- Add in the coleslaw mix. Drizzle with sriracha, vinegar, soy sauce and sprinkle with the sugar, salt and pepper. Fry for another 5 minutes until the cabbage is wilted to your liking.
- Plate, then sprinkle with the toasted sesame seed and green onions.
Notes
- The spiciness can be increased by adding extra sriracha to the dish.
- Ground chicken or turkey can replace beef for a lighter protein option.
