Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground turkey or chicken
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 6 cups coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 4 green onions, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: sesame seeds, sriracha

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Add diced onion, minced garlic, and fresh ginger to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the coleslaw mix and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the cabbage has softened but still has some crunch.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and ground ginger. Pour the sauce over the turkey and cabbage mixture.
  5. Add most of the sliced green onions (reserve some for garnish) and stir everything together. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot topped with remaining green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

Meal prep friendly - keeps well for 4 days. Vegetarian option: use tofu or tempeh. Add red pepper flakes or sriracha for heat. Top with toasted sesame seeds or crushed peanuts for crunch. Serve over cauliflower rice for keto/low carb option.
