Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 lb ground pork or ground turkey/chicken
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
  • 1 14-ounce bag coleslaw mix
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium coconut aminos or tamari/soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 green onions sliced, plus more for garnish
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Large Skillet or Dutch Oven
  • Spatula or Wooden Spoon

Method
 

  1. Brown the Meat: Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and diced onion. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, for 5-7 minutes until the pork is browned and the onion is soft.
  2. Add Aromatics: Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
  3. Cook Veggies: Add the entire bag of coleslaw mix and the sliced green onions to the skillet. Pour in the coconut aminos (or tamari). Stir well to combine.
  4. Simmer: Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until the cabbage has wilted to your desired tenderness.
  5. Finish & Serve: Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the toasted sesame oil. Taste and add more coconut aminos or a pinch of salt if needed. Serve immediately in bowls, garnished with extra green onions and sesame seeds.
