Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb ground turkey or chicken

Vegetables & Aromatics

  • ¼ cup yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated or minced
  • 1 (12-14 oz) package coleslaw mix
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Sauces & Oils

  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce (tamari or coconut aminos)
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 12 teaspoons sriracha or sambal oelek

Garnishes & Optional

  • Sriracha for serving (optional)
  • Sesame seeds and chopped cilantro for garnish
  • Cooked cauliflower rice for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook meat: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey or chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. While cooking, break the meat into smaller pieces using a wooden spoon or spatula. Season liberally with salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.
  2. Cook veggies: Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, coleslaw mix, low-sodium soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and sriracha to the skillet with the cooked meat. Stir well to combine and cook for another 5 minutes or until the cabbage is tender. Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning by adding more soy sauce or sriracha if desired.
  3. Serve: Portion the mixture into bowls. Top with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and chopped cilantro. Serve with additional soy sauce, sriracha, or chili crisp if you like extra spice. For a complete meal, serve alongside cooked cauliflower rice if preferred.

Notes

  • Use ground chicken or turkey for a lean protein option.
  • Coleslaw mix usually contains shredded cabbage and carrots; avoid adding extra carrots if aiming for lower carbs.
  • Adjust spice level by increasing or decreasing sriracha or sambal oelek.
  • To keep it gluten-free, use tamari or coconut aminos instead of regular soy sauce.
  • Cauliflower rice is optional but pairs well for a low-carb meal.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
