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

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large skillet, fry the ground beef until cooked and no longer pink. Drain and return to the stove.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
