Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 lb ground turkey (or chicken, lean beef)
  • 1 small sweet onion, finely diced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely minced
  • ¼ cup chicken broth

  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook for 5–6 minutes until almost done.
  2. Push meat aside, add remaining oil and diced onion. Sauté 3–4 minutes until soft.
  3. Stir in carrots, garlic, and ginger. Cook 2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits.
  5. Add shredded cabbage, soy sauce, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  6. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 12–15 minutes until cabbage is tender.
  7. Remove lid, stir in sesame oil, and serve with your chosen toppings.

Notes

  • Add a fried or poached egg for richness.
  • Use tofu or plant-based crumbles for a vegetarian version.
  • Boost flavor with a splash of fish sauce or oyster sauce.
  • Include veggies like zucchini, mushrooms, or bell peppers.
  • Top with water chestnuts for crunch.
  • Spice it up with sriracha or sriracha mayo.
