Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided

  • 1 lb ground turkey

  • 1 small sweet onion, diced

  • 1 cup shredded carrots

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced

  • ¼ cup chicken broth

  • 1 small head cabbage (or 2 bags coleslaw mix, ~8 cups)

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

  • ¾ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil

  • Optional toppings: cooked rice, green onions, toasted sesame seeds, sriracha mayo


Instructions

  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  • Add ground turkey and cook for 5–6 minutes until mostly browned.

  • Push turkey to one side, add remaining oil and sauté onion for 3–4 minutes.

  • Stir in carrots, garlic, and ginger. Cook 2 minutes.

  • Add broth and deglaze the pan.

  • Stir in cabbage, soy sauce, vinegar, salt, and pepper.

  • Cover and simmer on medium-low for 12–15 minutes until cabbage is tender.

  • Stir in toasted sesame oil.

Notes

  • For gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce.

  • Coleslaw mix saves time without sacrificing flavor.

  • Adjust spice level with chili flakes or sriracha mayo.
