Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 pound ground pork or chicken
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 4 cups coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for a touch of sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha or other hot sauce (optional, for heat)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground pork or chicken and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  5. Add the coleslaw mix to the skillet and stir-fry until it begins to wilt, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey (if using), and sriracha (if using).
  7. Pour the sauce over the ingredients in the skillet and toss to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. Stir in the sliced green onions.
  9. Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, use crumbled firm tofu or plant-based ground meat.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to your preferred level of spice.
  • If you don’t have coleslaw mix, you can shred your own cabbage and carrots.
