Ingredients
1 lb Ground Turkey (93% lean)
1/2 head Green Cabbage, thinly shredded
1 medium Onion, diced
3 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated
3 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tsp Toasted Sesame Oil
1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of vegetable oil.
Add the ground turkey to the pan and break it apart with a wooden spoon.
Cook until the meat is browned and no pink spots remain; remove and set aside.
Add diced onions to the hot skillet and sauté for 3 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger until fragrant.
Add the shredded cabbage in batches, cooking until it reaches desired tenderness.
Return the cooked turkey to the pan and stir in the soy sauce and toasted sesame oil.
Mix until thoroughly combined and heated through before serving.
Notes
Use coconut aminos as a delicious gluten-free alternative to soy sauce. This dish reheats well, making it an excellent candidate for meal prep. Adjust the cabbage tenderness to your preference; keep it crisp for a better mouthfeel or cook longer for softer texture.
